And! News has reached out to Combs' representative for comment on the surveillance video, but has not heard back.
CNN reported that the footage, which E! News has not been independently verified, it was filmed in March 2016, two years after Cassie and Combs ended their decade-long relationship. The outlet said it was filmed at the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles, based on publicly available photos of the old hotel's interior.
In a sexual abuse, sex trafficking and battery lawsuit Cassie filed against the rap mogul in November 2023, obtained by E! News, the singer details several alleged assaults by Combs, including one she said took place at the InterContinental Century City “in or around March of 2016.”
She alleged that in the hallway, the producer “grabbed her, and then picked up glass vases in the hallway and threw them at her, causing the glass to crash around her as she ran to the elevator to escape “. Cassie added that upon her “information and belief, Mr. Combs paid the InterContinental Century City $50,000 for hallway security footage from that evening.”
She and Combs settled the case a day later, with her attorney telling E! News in a statement that “Mr. Combs' decision to settle the lawsuit in no way undermines his categorical denial of the claims.”
Meanwhile, IHG Hotels & Resorts said the hotel in the alleged incident is no longer under its management, telling NBC News on May 17: “IHG did not produce these images, did not receive money for these images and doesn't have access to it.”
Combs still faces five other civil lawsuits filed in New York since last fall, accusing him of sexual assault, sex trafficking and other criminal activity, NBC News reported. He has denied all the allegations.
