Supposedly, freak-off videos are simply meant to show consensual sex.
According to Sean Combs aka P. Diddy, the infamous freak-off videos that people are trying to use against him are proof of his innocence. Apparently the tapes show Combs and ex-girlfriend Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura having consensual sex.
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ lawyers said in court documents obtained by TMZ on Tuesday (January 14) that footage showing sexual acts between their client and his then-girlfriend could now prove Diddy’s innocence. Combs was arrested in September on serious abuse charges and has been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn ever since.
Consensual sex and no sex parties
Prosecutors have described the videos in the past as “lavishly produced sexual performances” and wrote this in the indictment against Combs. Diddy is said to have recorded his so-called freak-offs on the tapes.

For the public prosecutor’s office, the video material is clear evidence of P. Diddy’s guilt.
But the imprisoned rapper’s legal team see things differently. In a letter to New York Judge Arun Subramanian, Combs’ legal team said that nine videos allegedly provided to the government by Ventura – referred to in the filing as Victim 1 – merely depicted sexual activity “between consenting adults in a long-standing relationship.” Relationship” – and not sex parties as alleged by the public prosecutor.
That’s how Diddy’s team argues
“Like many Americans, they have occasionally engaged in sexual activity in the privacy of their own bedrooms. These videos clearly demonstrate that the person referred to in the indictment as ‘Victim 1’ not only consented, but also clearly enjoyed it,” said the lawyers.
“There are no secret cameras, no orgies, no other celebrities involved, no underground tunnels, no minors and not even a hint of coercion or violence,” P. Diddy’s team wrote, attempting to refute the alleged conspiracy theories against Combs.
Combs’ lawyers also argued that Ventura was the one who stored the videos on her devices for years and turned them over, which they said undermines the claim that Combs kept the recordings in his home or possessions as a “backup.” “I kept it.
