Attorney brings up Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ bipolar diagnosis as possible link to alleged 2018 rape

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ attorney tried implying that his alleged 2018 sexual assault of Cassie Ventura could have been linked to his bipolar disorder.

The diagnosis came up when defense attorney Anna Estevao asked Ventura about what she had told investigators regarding Combs’ mood the night of the alleged rape.

Ventura testified that she said Combs was acting “strangely” earlier that night at dinner — “nice but strangely” — and that he “wasn’t in his right mind” because when she pleaded with him to stop, he didn’t.

Combs’ attorney then asked Ventura to confirm whether she told prosecutors that “his behavior [that night] could be attributed to his bipolar disorder.”

Ventura muttered, “I guess so.”

It was the first time the defense mentioned a potential bipolar diagnosis at Combs’ trial.
