Diddy seen physically assaulting Cassie in new 2016 surveillance footage.
After settling abuse and rape lawsuit with Diddy, new surveillance video aired by CNN has shown the business mogul assaulting former girlfriend, Cassie in a Los Angeles hotel in 2016. In the video, Diddy, who wears a white towel, punches and kicks the RnB singer. He also drags and throws a vase at her. This video resembles the description that Cassie gave in the lawsuit she filed in November. The lawsuit alleges that Diddy paid the hotel $50,000 for the surveillance footage. Surprisingly, the LA District County has revealed that they cannot arrest Diddy over the horrific video because of the statute of limitation as regards the period of the incident. Many have taken to social media to express their disgust for Diddy’s actions.
