The courtroom has heard gut-wrenching testimony from Combs' former assistants, his ex-girlfriend of 11 years, Cassie Ventura, and rapper Scott Mescudi, who is best known by his stage name Kid Cudi, among others.
Ventura, who is eight months pregnant when she took the stand, testified for four days about the horrific sex marathons she was allegedly forced into by Combs.
