Diddy’s former personal assistant, a woman identified in court by the pseudonym “Mia,” returned to the witness stand for another day of detailed testimony. Mia has accused Diddy of sexual assault and other physical violence, but her allegations of forced labor are especially crucial for the U.S. government’s racketeering conspiracy case against the rapper.
Mia was aggressively cross-examined by Brian Steel, one of Diddy’s lawyers. Steel attempted to undermine Mia’s account, confronting her with pictures and social media posts that appeared to show the ex-assistant enjoying her years working for the wealthy mogul. Mia pushed back, insisting seemingly carefree Instagram photos didn’t reflect her “misery.”
