Just
a
day
after
Casandra
“Cassie”
Ventura
filed
a
lawsuit
against
Sean
Diddy
Combs,
accusing
him
of
rape
and
abuse,
the
case
has
been
settled.
According
to
the
New
York
Times,
both
parties
announced
on
Friday
evening
(Nov.
17)
the
settlement.
However,
neither
side
disclosed
details
of
its
terms.
“I
have
decided
to
resolve
this
matter
amicably
on
terms
that
I
have
some
level
of
control,”
said
Cassie
in
a
statement.
“I
want
to
thank
my
family,
fans
and
lawyers
for
their
unwavering
support.”
“We
have
decided
to
resolve
this
matter
amicably.
I
wish
Cassie
and
her
family
all
the
best.
Love,”
said
Diddy
in
his
own
statement.
While
this
matter
is
settled
in
the
courts,
the
jury
of
public
opinion
is
certainly
going
to
continue
its
deliberations.
The
detailed
allegations
that
Cassie
documented
in
her
lawsuit
were
jarring
and
included
physical
and
sexual
abuse.
Another
detail
that
social
media
latched
onto
was
Kid
Cudi’s
car
allegedly
getting
blown
up
by
a
jealous
Diddy.
But
by
settling,
Diddy
avoids
the
discovery
portion
of
a
trial
where
Cassie
could
have
potentially
laid
out
the
receipts
to
back
up
her
allegations.
Also
worth
noting
is
that
although
there
were
initial
reports
that
Diddy
was
under
investigation
for
rape
in
New
York
City,
the
NYPD
has
since
refuted
those
claims.
Now,
the
speculation
of
how
much
Diddy
came
out
of
pocket
begins.
The
story
is
developing.
