One of Cassie’s former friends took the stand about two times she witnessed Diddy allegedly attack Ventura — while claiming Diddy paid her $30K to sign an NDA after he also choked her and hit her with a wooden hanger

Kerry Morgan took the stand during the second week of testimony in the federal criminal trial for Combs and described a violent incident involving the music producer in 2018.

Morgan testified that Combs choked and then smashed a wooden hanger on her head when he came to Ventura’s Los Angeles home enraged because he thought Ventura was dating someone else.
The attack left her with a concussion, Morgan told jurors.
She said was going to sue Combs but then Ventura made her sign a nondisclosure agreement in return for $30,000 to keep quiet while also accusing her of “milking” and “overexaggerating” the attack.
The episode ended their long-term friendship, and the two haven’t spoken since.
Morgan also said that she had “moved on with her life” but had to testify in response to a government subpoena.
During her testimony, she said she saw Combs beat Ventura at least twice, including once so severely that she thought her friend had been “knocked out.”
