  • 🧠 Mia explained she is still untangling "web of abuse and internalized shame" in therapy, which is why she is only recently coming forward.

Evidence Presented in Court

  • 🎂 A video Mia made for Combs's 44th birthday, where she thanked him for being an inspiration and expressed love, was shown to the jury.
  • 🚗 Mia testified that Combs would steal phones and place tracking devices on Cassie's car, admitting she kept Combs's whereabouts secret from Ventura and wished she could have done more.
