Sean Combs's Trial Will Focus Next on 2016 Hotel Assault Footage

It has been a year since 2016 footage of Sean Combs brutally assaulting his longtime girlfriend, Casandra Ventura, in a Los Angeles hotel was broadcast on CNN. Now those images, which became a potent demonstration of the music mogul's violence, are a centerpiece of his federal trial. The video of Mr. Combs striking and kicking Ms. Ventura has already been shown to jurors multiple times. On Tuesday, prosecutors are expected to delve into the events that followed the assault, which they have said involved Mr. Combs delivering $100,000 in a brown paper bag to purchase hotel security footage of the beating. Mr. Combs is facing charges of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy, which involves accusations that the mogul engaged an inner circle of bodyguards and high-ranking employees to help him commit a series of crimes over two decades. At least two of those criminal allegations — bribery and obstruction of justice — relate to the aftermath of the assault at an InterContinental hotel in Los Angeles. Mr. Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges. His lawyers have said that he and his employees were involved in legitimate business operations, not a criminal conspiracy, and that the sex at issue in the government's case was entirely consensual. On Tuesday morning, Eddy Garcia, a hotel security supervisor who was on duty shortly after the 2016 assault, is expected to take the stand. He will be testifying under an immunity order after telling the government that he intended to assert his Fifth Amendment right to not incriminate himself. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
