The official remembered that he had examined the fire -damaged vehicle. And said it was not on fire when the fire brigade arrived.

Combs was in rage, said Ventura. “I only remember how he took a wine opener between his fingers and fell on me,” she said. “His eyes were black with anger. I just had to get away from there.” Ventura fled the dispute. And returned to her hotel, where she called Mescudi with a disposable cell phone who picked up her.
Combs threatens to publish videos
Ventura tried to withdraw. But said that she was finally convinced to meet Combs. “I just felt that it was better to clarify the thing at that moment. Go there and just talk to him,” she said. But Ventura claimed that Combs was not in the mood to smooth the waves. “He was angry,” she said. “He was just so angry. And when I was in the room, he told me about videos he had. And which he wanted to publish. Also how he would hurt Scott and me.”
Kicks in the back – bruise with photo documented
When she left Combs’ house, Ventura claimed that Combs had stepped into her back so that she fell to the ground and brewed a large, violet bruise on the lower back. Photos of this were shown to the jury.
Content of the email: explicit videos and murder threats
Ventura then flew back to her family to Connecticut to spend the holidays there. And sent an email to her mother, Regina Ventura, and Capricorn Clark on December 23, 2011. Ventura said that she wanted to capture Combs’ threats. “The threats that Sean ‘Puffy’ Combs spoke to me are that he will publish two explicit sex videos of me,” Ventura wrote from an email account under her pseudonym Veronica Bang.
“He will hurt us physically”
“One on Christmas Day, maybe in front of it or right afterwards. And another shortly afterwards,” she added. “He also said that he would hire someone to physically hurt me and Scott Mescudi. He emphasized that he would not do it himself. He even said that at that time he would not be in the country.”
Regina Ventura says about email content
Ventura’s mother, Regina Ventura, which testified at the beginning of this week, said she had become “physically ill” when she read the email. “I didn’t understand a lot of it,” she said. “The sex videos blew me away. I didn’t know the other person in it. But I knew he wanted to hurt my daughter.”
Cassie separates from Mescudi out of fear
Due to the overwhelming situation, Ventura said that she separated from Mescudi a few days later. Because she believed that this was safer for both. “I mean Sean told myself before I left La that he would hurt both of us,” said Ventura in court. “At least I understood it in such a way that we would both be hurt if I stay in this situation. If I don’t do it, nobody will be hurt.”
Further threats to Cudi after return to Combs
Although she returned to Combs, Ventura said from that combs was still angry on Mescudi. And continued threats. “He mentioned that Scott’s car would be blown up if we were out of the country,” she said. “He wanted that [Mescudis] Friends are there to see that. “
Meet in the Soho House with Combs and Cudi
Ventura said she saw Mescudi some time later at a meeting of the three in the Soho House in Los Angeles. “The purpose of the meeting was to talk about the relationship that we no longer had,” said Ventura. “At the end of the meeting, Scott said: ‘What about my car?’ And Sean said: ‘Which car?’ And with that the meeting was over. “
