Sean Diddy Combs continues to be entangled in his federal sex trafficking trial after multiple alleged victims came forward to reveal some disturbing acts by the rapper. His former graphic designer took the stand during the fourth week of testimony in Diddy’s trial.

Bryana ‘Bana’ Bongolan, a friend of Diddy’s former girlfriend Cassie aka Casandra Ventura, claimed that the rapper had dangled her from a 17th-floor balcony while screaming profanities.

She testified in the court on Wednesday and claimed that she was left traumatised and still has nightmares nearly a decade later, and would wake up screaming.

She told the jury that Diddy testified that Diddy had lifted her over the balcony railing for 10-15 seconds, pulled her back in, and then tossed her onto the patio furniture.

Bongolan revealed, “I was scared to fall.” She also claimed that the September 2016 attack at Cassie’s Los Angeles apartment caused a bruise on her leg and pain to her back and neck. She also showed the photos of her wearing a neck brace, which looked like the size of a softball, to the jury.

She further admitted, “I have nightmares and I have a lot of paranoia and I used to scream a lot in my sleep, but it’s dissipated a little bit.”

Bongolan described her paranoia as checking doors cautiously and peeking into rooms before entering, with her most recent nightmare occurring just a few days prior.

She has also filed a lawsuit accusing Combs of sexual battery in November 2024.

Meanwhile, Diddy’s lawyer, Nicole Westmoreland, cross-examined Bongolan and asked her to name the drugs that she used to do with Cassie while living with her. Bongolan listed marijuana, GHB, ecstasy and ketamine, among other things.

However, the lawyer then highlighted apparent inconsistencies in the balcony incident account, noting that Bongolan had told prosecutors she was smoking marijuana when the alleged attack occurred, but in her lawsuit, she claimed to have been smoking a cigarette.

Bongolan also testified that she saw him abusing Cassie. Meanwhile, Cassie testified over the course of four days that Diddy beat her and subjected her to hundreds of freak-offs. She also mentioned the abuse against Bongolan. However, several other witnesses described seeing similar abuse.

Meanwhile, Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. The rapper has pleaded not guilty to charges of running his business empire as a racketeering enterprise, allegedly using employees to enable and conceal the sexual and physical abuse of women over two decades. He may face 15 years to life if convicted.
