In a dramatic courtroom revelation, Capricorn Clark, a former employee of Sean “Diddy” Combs, testified that she was kidnapped at gunpoint by the music mogul and his security guard in a plot to attack rapper Kid Cudi. According to Clark, the incident occurred in 2011 when Diddy confronted her at her apartment, demanding she drive him to Kid Cudi's home, stating, “Get dressed, we’re going to go kill this [expletive].” This high-stakes testimony marked a pivotal moment in a trial where Diddy faces serious charges, including racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution, for which he could potentially face life in prison if convicted.
Clark, who worked for Diddy’s Bad Boy Entertainment for over a decade, described the intense atmosphere when Diddy arrived at her residence brandishing a firearm, appearing “livid” upon discovering that Kid Cudi, whose legal name is Scott Mescudi, was in a relationship with Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. She recounted being forced against her will to accompany them, detailing how she used her phone to alert Ventura about the looming confrontation with Kid Cudi. Their arrival coincided with Kid Cudi returning home, but Diddy and his guard entered alone.
During cross-examination, Clark firmly denied any suggestion that her presence was voluntary. She relayed Diddy’s threats, claiming he warned her and Ventura that they needed to persuade Kid Cudi that he wasn’t involved in a violent break-in at Cudi's home, adding, “If you don’t convince him of that I’ll kill all you.” Reflecting on her tumultuous tenure working for Diddy, she noted that he threatened her life on her first day of employment but still felt compelled to remain in his circle, describing him as a transformative figure in the music business for people of color.
The case continues to unfold with further testimonies expected, alongside Kid Cudi’s previous accounts of a Molotov cocktail attack he attributes to Diddy. As this high-profile trial progresses, the world waits with bated breath for updates on the serious allegations facing one of hip-hop's most iconic figures.
