A disturbing voice note from Diddy to one of his former partners was shared in court today (9 June).
Sean 'Diddy' Combs's trial for racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution, all of which he has pleaded no guilty to, resumed today in New York City.
The music record executive and producer is entering the fifth week of his legal battle, after testimonies from ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and other witnesses were made.

A male escort known as 'The Punisher' also revealed what he saw during Diddy's infamous 'freak-off' parties, while fellow music artist Kid Cudi alleged that the 55-year-old set his car on fire in his testimony.
Just last week, the judge threatened to remove Diddy from court for conduct that was considered 'absolutely unacceptable'.
But now, the music mogul, who is facing life behind bars if found guilty, was made to re-listen to a chilling 2023 voice note sent to an ex-girlfriend.
She is testifying under the pseudonym 'Jane', and speaking about claims that Diddy abused his power to coerce people into sexual and criminal activities, taking place over the span of 20 years.

Jane took back to the stand today after telling the jury that she was made to be a part of sexual performances with male sex workers for Diddy's enjoyment, fairly often.
While her testimony is set to go into next week, Jane already admitted that she never wanted to sleep with other men, but did it for Diddy, who she said she loved.
Prosecutors also played a voice note dating back to 2023, sent to Jane from Diddy, where he tells her to 'get on her job' after she said she was too busy to make a freak off.
He can be heard sounding quite annoyed, saying: "I’m about to really disappear on you, you feel me?"
The Bad Boy Records founder added that she had a 'rude awakening' coming.

Diddy went on: "You better get on your job, that’s all it is... because you got me on my job."
Jane explained that her job was to keep him happy, which included letting him watch her have sex with other men, while Diddy's so-called job was to financially support her with payments of $10,000 per month.
Jane also said on the stand that she 'almost fainted' when Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy in 2023, with 'three specific pages' hitting too close to home for her.
"I remember these pages resembled my own experience... I was bewildered, I was in shock," she recalled.

She also claimed that she was made to smuggle pills in her checked luggage onboard two flights from Los Angeles to Miami, for Diddy.
Jane also revealed that Diddy still pays the rent for her Los Angeles home, having started in April 2023 and even splashing tens of thousands on furniture.
This is despite the fact that the pair broke up last year, with the arrangement part of their 'love contract'.
An old text from Diddy to Jane read: "Look at the roof over your head and that pretty smile," referencing the rent and the veneers that she got put in, with his financial help.
The trial continues.
