Emotional Testimony in Diddy Trial: ‘Jane’ Details Alleged Abuse During ‘Hotel Nights’

In a harrowing testimony during Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ongoing federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, a woman identified by the pseudonym “Jane” recounted distressing experiences of alleged abuse. Speaking through tears, Jane described being coerced into prolonged, drug-fueled sexual encounters, referred to as “hotel nights,” which she claimed were orchestrated and directed by Combs.

Allegations of Coercion and Control

Jane testified that these “hotel nights” involved multiple male escorts and could last up to three and a half days. She alleged that Combs supplied her with Ecstasy to endure these sessions and pressured her to continue despite her exhaustion and pleas to stop. According to Jane, Combs would use phrases like “Let’s finish strong” to compel her participation and decided when the encounters would end. She also claimed that Combs manipulated her financially, threatening to withhold rent and other support if she resisted his demands.

Physical and Emotional Impact

The witness detailed the physical and emotional toll of these experiences, including constant back pain, infections, and psychological trauma. Jane described feeling dehumanized and trapped in a cycle of abuse, stating that she became financially dependent on Combs during their relationship, which began in 2021. She also recounted instances where she was pressured to forgo condoms and perform acts despite experiencing physical pain and illness.

Defense and Ongoing Proceedings

Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which include racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. His defense team argues that the activities described were consensual and that the relationships were based on mutual agreement. The trial continues, with Jane expected to provide further testimony regarding an alleged 2024 assault.

The proceedings have garnered significant public attention, shedding light on serious allegations against the music mogul and raising broader questions about abuse of power and consent within the entertainment industry.
