Casandra Ventura is Combs&rsquo; former girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, the former girlfriend testified that she initially participated in the &ldquo;Freak Offs&rdquo; for Combs.<\/p>\n<p>She said that she was later blackmailed into continuing with video of the events.<\/p>\n<p>Regina Ventura testified Tuesday that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/sean-diddy-combs-hits-new-rock-bottom-no-circumstances-can-continue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Combs<\/a> tried to extract $20,000 from her.

The message detailed Combs&rsquo; threats to release compromising videos.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I was scared for my daughter&rsquo;s safety,&rdquo; Regina Ventura told the court, noting she took a loan against her home to meet Combs&rsquo; demands. She says the money was eventually returned to her.<\/p>\n<p>Sharay Hayes, a male exotic dancer known as &ldquo;The Punisher&rdquo; also testified Tuesday about engaging in sexual activities with Casandra Ventura under the direction of Combs. He said he was paid from $1,200 to $2,000 per encounter between 2012 and 2016. Hayes testified that Ventura appeared reluctant but at other times seemed to enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It seemed like there was consent there as far as I was concerned,&rdquo; Hayes told Combs&rsquo; defense under cross-examination.<\/p>\n<p>The artist has been detained in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/meet-nyc-punk-18-incidents-record-police-say-attacked-blind-woman-set-someones-hair-fire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York City<\/a> since his arrest in September of last year.<\/p>\n<p>Combs played a key role in growing the popularity of hip-hop in America, earning fortune and stardom in the process.
