Diddy’s Ex-Assistant Capricorn Clark Claims She Was Kidnapped, Rapper Threatened to Kill Her Due to Suge Knight Ties

The third week of testimony in Sean “Diddy” Combs’s sex-trafficking and racketeering case will bring more prosecution witnesses to the stand, including Combs’s former assistant Capricorn Clark. In testimony last week, Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi alleged that Clark called him to say that her boss had broken into Mescudi’s home.

The ex-Bad Boy employee shared on the stand that, prior to working for Combs, she worked for Suge Knight at Death Row Records. (Knight and his protégé Tupac Shakur were involved in a years-long feud with Combs and his artist, the Notorious B.I.G., which led to the deaths of both rap icons).

“He told me that he didn’t know that I had anything to do with Suge Knight and that if anything happened, he would have to kill me,” Clark claimed in her testimony, adding that she thought he was “very serious.”

“I felt like there was some gravitas that he had some issues with Suge,” the ex-assistant said.

Clark also testified that she was once “kidnapped” by Combs and his staff. She recalled a time when the head of security Paul “Uncle Paulie” Offord allegedly took her to the Bad Boy offices for a series of lie detector tests after several pieces of Combs’ jewelry went missing.

The ex-assistant claimed she was told she had been “brought to the building to take a lie detector test to figure out what happened with the jewelry.”

“He said if you fail this test, they’re going to throw you in the East River,” she further alleged on the stand.

Clark testified that she was tested for five days, with Offord bringing her back to the office every morning and letting her know that they would keep doing so until they “got to the bottom” of what happened.

The former assistant testified she continued to comply because she wanted to “prove [her] innocence,” adding, “I didn’t like the threats. I just wanted to get through it.”

Most of the lie detector test results came back “inconclusive,” but Clark was allowed to continue working for Combs. She testified she returned to work out of fear that her boss would think she stole if she didn’t.

Clark held several roles while working for the Bad Boy Records founder, including marketing director for Sean John. She also worked as Casandra “Cassie” Ventura’s creative director from 2016 to 2018.

The “Me & U” singer had developed a close bond with Clark over the years, with Ventura even confiding in the former Bad Boy staffer about her brief romance with rapper Kid Cudi in 2011.

When Cudi took the stand last week, he testified that Clark once admitted to him that Combs had broken into his Los Angeles home out of jealousy over his relationship with Ventura.

Cudi testified that when he arrived at his house at the time, he found several opened Christmas gifts, including one from Chanel, and his dog had been locked inside the bathroom. He also testified about a separate incident, in which his car was burned.

Clark testified Tuesday that when Combs learned of Cudi’s fling with Ventura, her then-boss allegedly told her, “Get dressed, we’re going to go kill this man.” He allegedly had a gun on him at the time.

The ex-assistant — whom Combs had allegedly once pushed during a dispute — also testified to witnessing the “Bad Boy for Life” rapper repeatedly kick Ventura with “full force” during another fight.

Clark is one of Combs’ many former employees to be called as witnesses during his federal trial.

George Kaplan, who also worked as an assistant from 2013 to 2015, testified on May 21 about witnessing his then-boss be violent toward Ventura and helping set up hotel rooms for their “Freak-Offs.”

The feds have charged Combs with racketeering, claiming he used his companies, like Combs Enterprise, to carry out his illegal activities. He has also been charged with sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution, but has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
