Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs made chilling 3-word threat after beating Cassie Ventura in hotel, security guard testifies

A security guard testified about a threat Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly made after the rapper beat his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, in a hotel in 2016.

Los Angeles Police Department officer Israel Florez took the stand in Combs’ sex-trafficking trial Monday, telling the jury that he was called to a woman in distress on the sixth floor of the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Calif.

The officer said he immediately recognized Combs, who was dressed in nothing but a white towel, but did not know Ventura at the time.

“She was scared. She was in the corner, hood on, covered up,” Florez testified.

“I couldn’t see her face. She was pretty much in the corner. On the floor was a destroyed flower vase.”

Florez claimed Combs told him he and Ventura had been arguing. While the hip-hop mogul was speaking, the officer noticed the “Me & U” singer trying to walk away and get her phone. However, the three-time Grammy winner allegedly told her she could not leave.

Florez told jurors he put his body in the doorway and stood there for a few minutes until Ventura was able to leave the hotel room.

“I started to leave, and [Combs] called for me. He had a sack of money, and he threw it at me and said, ‘Don’t tell anyone,'” Florez testified.

Page Six has reached out to Combs’ reps for comment but did not immediately hear back.

In November 2023, Ventura, now 38, filed a bombshell lawsuit against the “Last Night” rapper, 55, accusing him of rape and repeated physical abuse.

They settled the next day.

Then, in May 2024, CNN published hotel surveillance footage of Combs attacking Ventura after she tried to escape into an elevator.

In the clip, the Sean John clothing founder could be seen running after the “Long Way 2 Go” singer while wearing nothing but a towel around his waist.

When he caught up to Ventura, he threw her down on the floor and began kicking her multiple times while she was down. Combs then dragged the pop star down the hallway and threw what appeared to be a flower vase at her as she was backed into a corner.

After the shocking video made headlines, the dad of seven took to Instagram to issue an apology video for his “inexcusable” behavior — though he notably did not mention his ex in it.

“I went and I sought out professional help, started going to therapy and rehab, had to ask god for his mercy and grace,” he said in the now-deleted clip.

Combs is currently on trial facing charges of racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.

He has pleaded not guilty.

The “I’ll be Missing You” emcee is also facing numerous lawsuits accusing him of a range of sexual misconduct.

Ventura, who is currently pregnant with her third child with husband Alex Fine, is expected to take the stand against Combs, whom she dated on and off for nearly a decade, as soon as Tuesday.
