The gruesome video seemingly matches some of the violent incidents described by Cassie in her bombshell lawsuit last year.

Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light."

Last year, Cassie's scathing lawsuit against Diddy was settled very quickly. It was confirmed that a New York court had dismissed the suit after the parties came to an agreement. The case was dismissed "with prejudice and without costs or fees to either party. "

Due to the type of dismissal, the singer won't be able to file the suit ever again. It would have to be based on different accusations with supporting evidence. The million-dollar settlement was announced just a day after the lawsuit was filed and made public.

In the legal filing made by Cassie, she alleged that her ex-boyfriend, Diddy, controlled and abused her for over ten years. Cassie claimed that the rapper drugged her, beat her, and forced her to have sex with numerous male sex workers, all on video. 

The "Me & U" singer stated in her suit that their relationship began in 2007, and Diddy quickly began a pattern of severe abuse. Cassie claimed that the rapper was "prone to uncontrollable rage" and would subject her to "savage" beatings, often punching, kicking, and stomping on her.

Cassie further alleged that the music producer once broke into her home right before the end of their relationship and forced her to sleep with him.

In her lawsuit, Cassie recalled speaking "to another music manager at a party in Los Angeles," which caused Diddy to "become enraged."

The legal document read: "She had hoped speaking to this manager would allow her to further grow her career, and that Mr. Combs would be happy for her, but instead he became extremely angry and pulled her out of the club where the party was taking place. In the car leaving the club, Mr. Combs beat Ms. Ventura, pushing her into a corner of the vehicle and stomping on her face."
