Shocking testimony: Kid Cudi claims Diddy broke into his home and set his Porsche on fire
Kid Cudi walking into court to testify against Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Image: X/@KingWizzrd Besides looking like he strutted straight out of a "Grease" movie scene, Kid Cudi ended the second week of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' federal trial with a dramatic testimony that brought new tension to an already complex case. Cudi, real name Scott Mescudi, testified on Thursday, detailing an unsettling encounter linked to his brief relationship with Cassie Ventura, Diddy's on-and-off partner at the time. According to Mescudi, in December 2011, he was spending Christmas with Cassie and her family when she called him early one morning. She had just spoken to an employee of Combs, who sounded 'very scared' and claimed Combs and another man were inside Mescudi's Hollywood Hills home. When Mescudi contacted Combs, he recalled Combs telling him, 'I just want to talk to you' and admitting he was at the house, 'Waiting for you.' By the time Mescudi arrived home, Combs had already left. But signs of the break-in were clear. Video Player is loading.

'I was looking for [Combs],' Mescudi told the court. 'I wanted to confront him, I wanted to fight him, you know?' Instead, he chose to contact the police. Mescudi later confronted Combs over the phone. 'You broke into my house and messed with my dog,' he said. 'I don't want to talk to you.' The pressure didn't stop there. Mescudi testified that while he was still with Ventura over the holidays, Combs continued to call him repeatedly, wanting to know more about the relationship. 'He wanted to get to the bottom of it and figure it out,' Mescudi said. Things escalated weeks later when Mescudi's Porsche 911 convertible was set on fire while parked outside his home. He claimed someone threw a Molotov cocktail into the car. While Combs has denied any involvement in the arson, Mescudi's timeline suggests the events were not unrelated. The trial this week also revealed allegations that he extorted $20,000 (R380 000) from Ventura's family by threatening to release explicit sex tapes of her. Ventura's mother, Regina Ventura, testified that in 2011, after discovering Cassie's brief relationship with Mescudi, Combs demanded payment to stop the tapes from being made public. Regina described the ordeal as deeply upsetting, saying, 'I did not understand it, the sex tape threw me. He was trying to hurt my daughter.' Reports also quoted Mescudi referring to Sean 'Diddy' Combs as a 'Marvel villain,' a sharp way to capture how dark and threatening he found Combs' behaviour throughout their interactions. The defence has admitted that Combs was 'violent with romantic partners' and described his personal life as 'different.' However, they maintain that he did not commit any federal crimes. Still, Mescudi's account adds weight to the prosecution's case. The federal racketeering and sex trafficking case continues next week.

Gauteng NPOs in ‘crisis' as govt delays funding
JOHANNESBURG - Access to basic nutrition, shelter, healthcare and social services is a fundamental human right enshrined in South Africa's Constitution. But what happens when rights are stripped away? The non-payment of subsidies to Gauteng non-profit organisations is a disaster in the making. Many of these organisations are still recovering from last year's prolonged battle with the provincial Department of Social Development over delayed payments. Their role in keeping the province's most vulnerable safe cannot be understated. Many of them serve as homes and safe havens for women, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. And without money from the government, these organsations will be forced to scale back on the services they provide, retrench staff, or even shut their doors. Doing so would push many deeper into poverty, homelessness, and even abuse. Epworth Child and Youth Care Centre in Germiston accommodates 84 children. It has provided services to children at risk since 1918, but now finds itself on the verge of closure. The organisation has been relying on donations to keep its doors open. It faced the same threat last May, when the department failed to pay many NPOs on time. In November 2023, the department withheld R380,000 pending the signing of a service-level agreement (SLA). The organisation had been deprived of R1.5 million the previous year – again due to contractual issues that required legal intervention. Epworth director Penny-Ann Lundie says the department's failure to pay subsidies on time threatens their operations. 'We are running an organisation. There is petrol, groceries, and salaries. Luckily, the community stepped up when we were about to close and that has been keeping us going at the moment,' she says. Last year, the Gauteng Care Crisis Committee slammed the department for its handling of subsidies. At the time, the committee listed 17 non-profit organisations that had depleted their subsidies for 2023/24. Some of the organisations were forced to shut down, depriving thousands of critical services. A year later, the committee is once again sounding the alarm over non-payments. Lundie says while there is no expectation that payments must be made on 1 April, when Treasury releases funds, it's expected that SLAs must be in place by 31 March. "This is not an unreasonable demand, it is the standard set by the national Department of Social Development's sector funding policy. However, the DSD only began signing contracts in mid-April and making payments from 9 May onward," she said. Social Development MEC Faith Mazibuko told the Gauteng Legislature that while the department experienced funding challenges in the previous financial year, those challenges had been addressed. She said the narrative of a 'crisis' was a 'gross misrepresentation' of facts. She told the legislature that, for 2025/26, the department had: • Received 2,000 applications for funding; • Issued 1,200 letters confirming funding; and • Signed over 300 SLAs. The MEC also revealed that a formal appeals process was underway for unsuccessful applicants. Gauteng Care Crisis Committee chair Lisa Vetten, however, says this is not enough, as the department has not indicated how many of the award letters will be converted into SLAs. She adds that at least 800 organisations that did not receive award letters have likely been excluded from funding. Vetten has called for payments to be expedited, saying the department must publish a full list of organisations that will be funded for 2025/26. She says the department must also disclose the number of rejected organisations. Gauteng Social Development spokesperson Teddy Gomba attributes the delays to 'technical issues at Treasury'. 'This does not constitute a crisis, as several other provinces have experienced similar delays in the past week,' he says. Gomba adds that the department spent 96% of its total allocated budget for NPOs in 2024/25, with 'the 4% non-payment due to non-compliance on the side of NPOs'. He also blames the late signing of some SLAs on non-compliant NPOs, and says payments are being made to qualifying organisations. 'NPOs were made aware of delays. The change of [financial years] sees lots of processing of payments, so there was a technical glitch with the payment system. Payments have resumed; 395 payments have been processed successfully to date, and more payments are ongoing. There are no failures, just delays because of the reasons given above.'
