P Diddy's escort claims rapper only wore one item of clothing in Freak Offs
Escort The Punisher testified during the second week of the ongoing P Diddy trial in Manhattan and told the court about his encounters with the musician
An escort who was involved in P Diddy's Freak Offs has told the court the rapper wore just one item of clothing during them. Exotic dancer and escort Sharay Hayes, also known as The Punisher, was allegedly hired for Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Freak Offs, which involved sex and consuming drugs.
Taking to the stand on Tuesday, Sharay gave evidence during the second week of the trial, which is expected to last six weeks. Rapper and music mogul Diddy, 55, is currently being remanded in custody. He faces a number of charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He was arrested in September and strongly denies all allegations made against him. He has been in prison since his arrest, and a number of bail requests have been rejected.
Giving evidence, Sharay told the court about his first time at one of Diddy's Freak Offs. He claimed that Diddy appeared naked, apart from just one item of clothing, on his face.
He claimed the hotel room was dimly lit and all the furniture had been covered with sheets, and bowls of water were left around the room, along with bottles of baby oil. Hayes told the court that he came out of the bathroom wearing just a towel before Cassie Ventura rubbed baby oil on herself and then him.
After this, he claims a man emerged in the room. Hayes told the court that the man, Diddy, was "nude" and his face had been completely covered by a veil. He explained that Diddy was sitting behind a table and chair, as well as pacing back and forth throughout the Freak Off.
Diddy is alleged to have spoken to Cassie during the interaction, giving her subtle directions. Hayes told the court that the interaction lasted between 25 and 45 minutes and ended when the man, Diddy, stood up and vacated the room, with Cassie following him.
Upon her return, she allegedly asked Hayes if he wanted to finish, with Hayes believing she was asking if he wanted to orgasm, which he declined. She then handed him an extra $1,200, the court heard. At the time of the incident, Hayes claimed he had no idea that the man behind the veil was Diddy, but later allegedly discovered his identity when he was asked to take part in a similar act.
He told the court he had around eight to 12 encounters with Diddy and his ex-girlfriend, Cassie. During his testimony, he told the court that Diddy made the decision to ditch the veil and later wore a baseball cap.
Earlier this week, the jury was shown pictures taken by federal agents at Diddy's room at the Park Hyatt Hotel, New York, where he was arrested. Despite Combs having agreed with his attorneys to surrender to authorities before his arrest, his hotel room showed what appeared to be preparation for a 'freak off'. A number of bottles of baby oil were found, as was mood lighting, when authorities arrived.
Other objects discovered on location include a mysterious pink powder in small bags, a bottle of pills and money. Among the drugs found in the room, according to prosecutors, were ketamine and MDMA.
The trial continues.

Ex-girlfriend made to read out loving texts she sent to accused rapper Combs
A defence lawyer for hip-hop entrepreneur Sean 'Diddy' Combs had his ex-girlfriend read aloud a series of loving text messages she sent him over the past few years until she broke down in tears on Wednesday. The second day of cross-examination by lawyer Teny Geragos seemed aimed at supporting the defence position that the woman, who testified under the pseudonym 'Jane', was a willing participant in the sometimes-weekly sex with male sex workers that Combs directed and watched for hours. Advertisement Ms Geragos and Jane read aloud dozens of text messages exchanged during a relationship that stretched from 2021 until Combs was arrested last September. At one point, Jane read a text saying she had 'never had a man take care of me like you do' and professing her unending love for the entertainment icon – before Jane stopped reading and began sniffling, then dabbed tears from her eyes with a tissue. Sean Combs denies the charges (Mark Von Holden/Invision/AP) After prosecutors objected and requested a sidebar conversation with the judge away from the jury, Jane sat slumped in the witness chair, hair hanging over one side of her face. At the defence table, Combs was quietly reading from one of the TV monitors in front of him. Advertisement It was the fifth day of testimony for Jane, who has said she still loves Combs. She previously discussed gaining insight into her relationship with Combs after three months of therapy. Jane also said she never wanted to have sex with any man except Combs but did so to please him. At other points on Wednesday, Ms Geragos elicited from Jane that she frequently became angry at Combs and wanted to end their relationship because she got upset that he was treating other girlfriends better. In one instance, Jane acknowledged, the Bad Boy Records founder even bought another girlfriend jewellery that was a matching set to jewellery he had given her. Advertisement Prosecutors say they charged Combs with sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy because he used threats, drugs and violence to force women into unwelcome sexual experiences and used his employees and associates to help him get what he wanted. Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he faces 15 years to life in prison. The testimony on Wednesday came during a shortened day in the courtroom that began in the afternoon. Ms Geragos said she expected to finish her cross-examination Thursday morning. Assistant US Attorney Maurene Comey, who is leading the prosecution, said the government expects to rest its case as early as next Wednesday. Advertisement Defence lawyer Marc Agnifilo would not outline what will occur when the defence gets its turn to call witnesses, saying that will depend on which witnesses the government still calls to the stand, but he said he was confident the trial will end by July 4.

Diddy's lawyers portray ‘hotel nights' as consensual encounters
This is a free article for Diddy on Trial newsletter subscribers. to get exclusive reporting and analysis throughout Sean Combs' federal trial. U.S. government prosecutors have presented the drug-dazed, marathon sexual encounters known as 'freak offs' as part of Diddy's sweeping criminal conspiracy. But in a forceful cross-examination of Diddy's ex-girlfriend ' Jane ' today, his legal team attempted to recast the 'freak offs' as consensual trysts. Here's what you need to know about Jane's fifth day on the stand: Jane, answering questions from defense attorneyTeny Geragos, said she initiated some 'freak offs' with Diddy. Diddy's lawyers entered as evidence photos of a room, decorated by Jane, filled with rose petals and balloons. When asked if she suggested a 'hotel night' with two other men on that occasion, Jane said yes. 'Yes, that was my suggestion,' she replied. Diddy was 'excited about that.' In late August 2022, after Jane had a tryst with Diddy and a sex worker named Paul, she told the rapper how much she enjoyed such sexual encounters. Jane texted Diddy that she was 'having so much fun,' adding that she would 'never take this for granted and will always make sure you are taken care of.' Jane wept on the stand after recounting telling Diddy in a text message that he was a 'blessing' in her life. 'I have never had a man take care of me like you do,' Jane wrote to Diddy a day after one of their 'hotel nights.' She added: 'You're the reason for my child's joy, it means the world to us, I love you baby.' Jane testified she urged Diddy to stay off drugs and eat healthy food for 30 days. Diddy suggested a 'sobriety party' — a 'hotel night' without drugs, she said. The October 2023 party lasted between 12 and 18 hours; Jane had sex with three men, she testified. 'I resent him for how much I loved him and couldn't say no to him,' she said. 'I resent him for all of it.' 🔎 The view from inside By Adam Reiss, Chloe Melas and Katherine Koretski The prosecutors are seeking to remove one of the jurors — Juror #6 — who Diddy's defense lawyers claim is among the panel's Black members. It's not exactly clear what's behind the prosecution's request, though it has cited a 'lack of candor.' 'We were very reluctant to put in this letter. It appeared to be a lack of candor with the court that raises serious issues with us,' Maurene Comey, one of the prosecutors, told the court today. 'We did not want to do this. We were compelled to do that.' In other news: Diddy, wearing what appeared to be a light orange sweater and khaki pants, stood up and faced the audience in the courtroom before proceedings got started today. He seemed to be mouthing words to someone. Tomorrow: 'Jane' is expected to return to the stand for more cross-examination. We'll be live-blogging the key moments.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' lawyer makes his ex-girlfriend read loving texts until she cries
