Sean 'Diddy' Combs' lawyers plan to press Cassie about infidelity during cross-examination

Sexual Misconduct Diddy - (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

Lawyers for Sean “Diddy” Combs say they'll question R&B singer Cassie on Thursday about how infidelity fueled the combustible, nearly 11-year relationship between the two, as cross-examination of the prosecution's star witness begins in Combs' sex trafficking trial.

It will be the third day on the stand for the 38-year-old Cassie after two days of questioning by prosecutors in a Manhattan courtroom. She testified on Wednesday that Combs raped her when she broke up with him in 2018, after he locked her into a life of physical abuse by threatening to release degrading sexual videos of her.
