Fans flooded social media to send love and support to Cassie after CNN published disturbing surveillance footage showing Sean 'Diddy' Combs violently assaulting her in 2016.
Social media was awash with an outpouring of support and love for Cassie after CNN obtained and released disturbing surveillance video showing her former boyfriend, Sean "Diddy" Combs, violently assaulting her in a hotel hallway in 2016.
The graphic footage, which corroborated allegations Cassie had made in a previous lawsuit against Combs, sparked an overwhelming response from users across Twitter and other platforms rallying behind the singer and model.
"I stood with Cassie BEFORE seeing her proof, but I am BAFFLED in what I just watched. Diddy, punching her in the head, throwing her to the floor, kicking her, dragging her? This is why you should believe victims when they speak. Everyone ain't lying," tweeted @MasinElije, whose message garnered over 2.9 million views.
Many expressed regret for initially doubting Cassie's claims of abuse, with @Shadowbladez16 writing, "You right. Cassie never told not 1 lie… I knew something was up when Diddy settled for 30 million & then wire transferred within 24 hours of the settlement."
The footage also reignited broader discussions around believing survivors, with users like @whatwaht123 stating, "This footage is extremely disturbing but at least there's solid visual proof of his abusive behavior now. LOCK HIM UP!"
As the harrowing video circulated online, celebrities and everyday fans alike voiced their unconditional support for Cassie and condemned Combs' actions captured on camera.
