    Revolting Testimony: The Punisher Takes the Stand, Cassie’s Mom Speaks Out | Diddy Trial Day 7
    May 21 2025
    Day 7 of Sean "Diddy" Combs’ federal sex trafficking trial brought revolting testimony from two explosive witnesses: Cassie Ventura’s mother, Regina Ventura, and male exotic dancer Sharay “The Punisher” Hayes. In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down every shocking detail — from allegations of physical abuse and sex tape threats… to bizarre, graphic descriptions of Diddy watching from the shadows wearing a Muslim-style veil during orchestrated sex acts.

    He was the king of Bad Boy Records: a billionaire mogul, a Grammy winner, and the face of luxury in hip-hop. Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a slew of federal charges in New York, accused of running a criminal enterprise for over two decades. Sean "Diddy" Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

    The prosecution says Karen Read’s SUV was reversing at the exact moment John O’Keefe last used his phone — and their digital expert says the car’s own data proves it. On Day 19 of the Karen Read trial, jurors heard from forensic analyst Shanon Burgess again. Today, under re-direct examination, he broke down the Techstream event logged by Read’s Lexus and explained how it lined up with O’Keefe’s final phone activity. But as his timeline came under fire, so did his credibility.. again.
