Sean 'Diddy' Combs trial updates: Combs' ex-assistant 'Mia' to continue testimony next week

"Mia" tried to run away from her job on New Year's Eve 2010, according to her testimony.

Combs' former assistant testified that she was with Combs, Kim Porter and their children on a yacht he chartered in St. Barth's when she alleged Combs called her into his cabin and asked her to count money.

"He got really angry with me and started yelling that I was counting too slow," "Mia" testified.

"He got really irate with me. I was trying to count the money. Because that wasn't my job, I wanted to make sure it was right." She then told the court that Combs said to her, "'You better learn to walk on water like Jesus, b----,' and chased me out of the room."

The yacht crew took her to shore but then received a call on a walkie-talkie saying she had to come back, "Mia" testified.

"Did you want to go back to the boat?" prosecutor Madison Smyser asked. "No," "Mia" told the court. "I just wanted to run and hide and figure out a way out of St. Barth's. I just wanted to get away from him."

Instead, she testified that she returned to the boat. "I felt I had to," "Mia" testified. "I obeyed Puff's orders."

Later she told the court she was informed she would be suspended. She testified it was one of several times that happened.

"There would be some sort of violent situations where I would be chased and be hiding somewhere," "Mia" testified of occasions when she would be suspended. "It was pretty much when I reacted."

"Who was violent in these situations?" Smyser asked. "Puff," "Mia" testified.

She told the court about one suspension in March 2011 after Combs entered his Los Angeles home and asked "Mia" to pull some workout clothes for him.

"He didn't notice that I had laid all the options out on the closet floor and had laid some out on the dresser in the entryway," "Mia" testified. "He began cursing me out, going on a rant about the lack of options and how he hated certain things and as he's yelling I tried to point to the other options and also say 'And if you don't like any of these I can help you find something.'"

She testified "something violent happened" after that but she did not recall what.

In a subsequent email, James Cruz, who worked for Bad Boy as talent manager, asked her, "Who's handling tix for Kids Choice awards?" "Mia" emailed back, "I'd totally help…but he's firing me at the moment."

That same day, "Mia" received an email from one of Combs' bodyguards, known as D Roc, who asked her, "What happened?"

"Mia" said in an email, "He's so psycho d…he's so mean. He just went bat---- crazy on me because he didn't see all of his workout options folded-organized" and asked D Roc, "Give me a warning before you guys come back."

In October 2015, when "Mia" accompanied Cassie Ventura to South Africa where she was shooting a movie, she testified that she received WhatsApp messages from Sean Combs demanding to speak with Ventura on the phone.

"If you don't call me now f--- it all. And imma tell everything. And don't ever speak me again. You have 2 min. F--- her. Call my hs now or never speak to me again. F--- abc and all lawyers. Let's go to war," the message from Combs read.

"Mia" told the jury the message contained several threats.

"I thought he was going to tell Cass about the sexual assaults framed on me," she testified, explaining that she believed Combs would portray the alleged sexual assaults he committed as consensual encounters initiated by her.

"Mia" explained the next part of the message.

"I had finally created and developed and started writing a comedy TV show based on a funny version of a character like me in his world and we had sold it to ABC. And when I was in South Africa the press broke, and it was the most exciting thing. He's threatening to take that away," she testified.

"Did the show end up airing?" prosecutor Madison Smyser asked. "No," "Mia" testified.

In subsequent messages Combs insisted, "Call me now. Call me now. Call me now. Call me now. Call me now." "Mia" told the court she tried to assure him she and Ventura were not ignoring him but were busy on the movie set.

"I've come to the conclusion it's best that we no longer have any dealings. Pls don't call me. I won't call you," a message from Combs said.

The jury saw other messages in which "Mia" would sign off "love you" or "you know I love you" but she testified that was meant to placate Combs and was not expressing romantic interest.

Sean Combs' former assistant "Mia" delivered some of the trial's most harrowing testimony yet on Thursday, delivered in hushed tones and with stilted speech, and she is expected to be on the witness stand all day Friday.

"Mia" testified that working for Combs was "chaotic," "toxic" and dependent on his whim.

"He can ask you to do 17,000 things at one time," "Mia" told the court. "Cracking his knuckles, to writing his next movie, to doing his taxes. He can also just have you standing next to him for 22 hours" doing nothing.

"Mia" testified that she feared she "couldn't tell him no," so when she alleges Combs climbed on top of her and sexually assaulted her in a bunkbed in his house, she told the court, "I just froze."

Combs denies sexually assaulting anyone, but "Mia" testified that it happened more than once, leaving her feeling "terrified and confused and ashamed and scared."

Combs is not charged with sexual assault but "Mia's" allegations are part of the forced labor element of racketeering conspiracy charge he faces, which he has denied.

In hushed tones, with her head down and through frequent sobs and tears, "Mia" testified that Sean Combs allegedly raped her inside his home on Beverly Grove Drive in Los Angeles.

According to her testimony, she was asleep in her room on the bottom bunk – she previously testified Combs did not allow her to lock her door – when she remembered waking to “the weight of a person on top of me,” allegedly Combs.

"Mia" told the court that she remembered Combs “telling me ‘shh’” and “using one hand to get his pants off.”

Haltingly, "Mia" told the court that Combs "put himself inside me.” She then broke down in sobs.

"Mia" testified, “I just froze. I didn’t react.”

"Mia" told the jury that she felt “terrified and confused and ashamed and scared.”

Another time, "Mia" testified, she was packing things in a bedroom closet when Combs entered.

“I looked up and he was standing right in front of my face,” "Mia" testified. Barely audible, "Mia" continued in her testimony, telling the court that Combs “had his penis out, grabbed my head and put it in there.”

Smyser asked, “Did he put his penis in your mouth?”

"Yes," "Mia" told the court.

“How did you feel?” Smyser asked.

“Like trash. Scared and ashamed," "Mia" testified.

“Did you want to give Mr. Combs oral sex?” Smyser asked.

“No," "Mia" told the court.

"Mia" took rapid breaths between words and phrases, testifying that she “always” worried about being physically hurt or having her reputation tarnished by Combs.

“I didn’t want to die or get hurt,” "Mia" testified. She told the court she also worried Combs would “fire me and twist the story into making me look like a threat.”

Asked why she did not tell Combs "no," "Mia" testified, “I couldn’t tell him no about a sandwich. I couldn’t tell him no about anything.”

"Mia" told the court that she did “absolutely not” want to be talking about the sexual assaults she alleged Sean Combs committed against her, but that “I have to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and also I have a moral obligation because when you’re scared into silence, these things continue to happen to others.”

"Mia" told the court that the alleged sexual assaults by Combs were “the most traumatizing, worst thing that has ever happened to me."

Court has adjourned for the day. Testimony by "Mia" will continue Friday.
