When P Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, testifying under a pseudonym Jane, took the stand, things were already tense. After all, she’s one of the key witnesses in the bombshell case against the hip-hop mogul. But the moment prosecutors brought up a message she sent back in October 2023, the vibe in the room shifted.
That one sentence—”I knew I was consenting, like you said“—was enough to make the courtroom zero in on her every word. With this text as their weapon, prosecutors didn’t hold back. They pushed, they prodded, and Jane was left defending herself and every word that came out of her mouth, despite going through enough trauma.
During P Diddy’s trial, one text contradicted his ex-girlfriend’s testimony
One of the biggest moments in P Diddy’s ongoing legal storm came when his ex-girlfriend, testifying under the pseudonym “Jane,” was asked about a text message she sent in 2023. Considering the message read, “I knew I was consenting, like you said”, this one text quickly turned into the centerpiece of a tense courtroom moment (via The Washington Post).
That one line made prosecutors—and even the judge—question Jane’s entire narrative. However, before the text came into play, Jane had been sharing painful details about her relationship with P Diddy. She described what she called “hotel nights,” which were long sessions of s*x involving paid male escorts—something Combs allegedly demanded as part of his control over her life.
Jane said she felt trapped because the rapper was still paying for her apartment under what she called a “love contract” they signed in 2023. She claimed that she felt forced to keep going with the disturbing arrangement. Later on, things got emotional when Jane was shown parts of Cassie Ventura’s lawsuit, where she had accused the rapper of very similar acts of abuse and control.
Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, using a pseudonym, broke down in court and said it was like reading her own story. For a moment, it seemed her testimony was deeply connecting with those listening. However, that emotional moment was quickly lost when Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey circled back to the 2023 text.
Prosecutor zeroed in on Jane, after her “consent” comment on the Freak Offs
Prosecutor Maurene Comey wasn’t about to let that text slide. Suddenly, Jane’s words—spoken in the heat of emotion—were being held under a microscope. So, Comey asked Jane, flat-out, what she meant when she told P Diddy she “knew” she was consenting. Jane explained that she didn’t come up with it herself, she just echoed what Diddy had told her during a phone call, earlier that day.
According to Jane, she had just finished a phone call with the rapper, where Diddy allegedly said, “If anybody were to watch those tapes, they’d think you were having the best time”. So later, in the text, Jane said she “picked up that word from him”. Now, this testimony became crucial as people in court tried to understand if Jane truly gave her consent to those “freak-off” parties—or if she was manipulated into believing she had.
When asked directly by Maurene Comey if she consented to those events, Jane paused for a long time and then replied with honesty that she had been “trying to figure that out”. Now, while it was a sincere response, it also complicated her entire testimony. After all the text reading “I knew I was consenting”, on its own reads like Jane has been agreeing to everything. But then, her explanation revealed a much more complicated truth.
Eventually, what had been a moment of truth became a moment of doubt, all because of that one loaded sentence.
