'Jane' Says Diddy Roughed Her Up Weeks After Cassie Beating Video Came Out

'Jane' Says Diddy Roughed Her Up Weeks After Cassie Beating Video Came Out

Yahoo19 hours ago

Diddy's ex-girlfriend "Jane" says he beat the crap out of her a couple weeks after the Cassie beating video was released ... and she claims the violence all started with a verbal argument about another woman.
Jane testified Monday she didn't see Diddy for about a month after the Cassie beating video aired on CNN in May 2024 ... until they met up at her home in Los Angeles on June 18 in what she said ended up being "a very terrible day."
She told jurors Diddy had just come from a family trip to Utah and they were talking in her backyard and drinking champagne and tequila when she says she confronted him about who he was traveling with in Utah.
Jane said she called Diddy a "pedophile" after assuming he was with a woman who was roughly 25 years younger than him ... even though Jane testified she thought the alleged female companion was between 18 and 21 years old.
She says the confrontation turned physical ... she told jurors she pushed Diddy's head into a marble counter and threw candles at him and told him she hated him.
Jane testified things kept escalating and she tried to lock herself in the master bedroom ... but said Diddy kicked the door in. She said she then locked herself in the master bathroom, but said Diddy kicked that door in, too. She said she ran to the master closet to change clothes and try to escape.
She told jurors she made a run for the front door but says Diddy caught her and kicked her in the back of the thigh, knocking her down. She said he put her in a chokehold and choked her, but claims she escaped his clutches and ran outside, hiding from him for what felt like 2 hours.
Jane said she then returned to the house, thinking Diddy was gone, and saw him on the street. She said she went inside and locked herself in the guest bedroom, but testified Diddy kicked the door in ... and she says she started throwing candles at him again.
She told the jury she then ran to a patio but was followed by Diddy, claiming she then punched him and he punched her back ... she added that all the punches were to each other's faces.
Jane said she then ran to the backyard and curled up in a ball as Diddy punched and kicked her before she says he grabbed her by her arm and hair and dragged her back to the house.
She testified after the alleged assault, she was in her master bedroom with Diddy and she used his phone to call the girl she thought he was with in Utah ... and she said when she asked the girl about the trip, the girl started insulting her, and Diddy held her down and made her listen to the verbal jabs.
Diddy's defense has heard similar tales of domestic violence at several points during the trial ... but it's important to note Diddy is not charged with domestic violence.

Bass enacts curfew for parts of downtown L.A. to stem chaotic protests

Mayor Karen Bass has announced a curfew will be put into effect for one square mile of downtown Los Angeles following four nights of sporadically chaotic protests during which the LAPD arrested more than 150 people. The curfew will extend from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. It will apply to the area of downtown from the 5 Freeway to the 110 Freeway and from the 10 Freeway to where the 110 Freeway and the 5 Freeway merge, Bass said. The mayor made the announcement Tuesday evening. She had suggested earlier in the day that she would consider a curfew if violence broke out again. She said the curfew would not be necessary citywide, as the protests have been largely centered in the downtown area. "I wanted to let the city know that I have declared a local emergency and issued a curfew for downtown Los Angeles to stop the vandalism, to stop the looting," said Bass at an evening news conference. Bass said she expected the curfew to last for several days. The decision on when to end it will be made in consultation with law enforcement and elected leaders, she said. The curfew does not apply to individuals living within the designated area, individuals experiencing homelessness, credentialed media or public safety and emergency personnel, said Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell. The curfew comes as arrests have increased every night since protests began in response to the Trump administration's immigration crackdown in Southern California. No one was arrested by Los Angeles police on Friday night, but 27 were arrested Saturday, 40 were arrested Sunday, and 114 were arrested Monday, according to Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell. Bass and other elected officials in Los Angeles have repeatedly asked protesters to remain nonviolent and refrain from spray-painting graffiti or otherwise vandalizing or burglarizing businesses. But each morning, new, often explicit, graffiti has adorned buildings across downtown. Protests were growing again on Tuesday afternoon, with people spilling onto the 101 Freeway downtown, temporarily blocking traffic in both directions on the busy roadway. People squeezed through holes in fences that were blocking the freeway on-ramp near Commercial Street. The crowd was met with lines of CHP officers who used batons to push them back. Some protesters lobbed water bottles. At least one protester was detained by CHP. Protesters previously shut down the 101 Freeway for several hours on Sunday, during which time the CHP made 19 arrests, according to agency spokesperson Officer Alec Pereyda. By 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, freeway traffic appeared to be moving freely in the northbound lanes and slowly in the southbound lanes.
