Update, 7:52 Pm: Just over 24 hours after Cassandra Ventura filed a rape and abuse lawsuit against her former longtime boyfriend Sean Combs, the singer and the music mogul ended the incendiary matter.
“I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control,” Ventura a.k.a. Cassie said in a statement late Friday of the federal court case that rocked the music biz on November 16 (see below for more details). “I want to thank my family, fans and lawyers for their unwavering support.” The mega-producer also known as Diddy added with brevity: “We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love.”
On Thursday there was back and forth talk between Ventura and Diddy’s lawyers of “eight-figure” offers to Cassie to keep quiet and allegations that the plaintiff had sought $30 million from Combs to not go public.
