“I Can’t Carry the Shame”

Much of the evidence we've heard so far today has been messages, and we're talking texts and emails which have been exchanged between Diddy and Cassie. Some of them are pretty graphic, as a lot of this case has been so far. We'll bring you more of those on Tuesday, but one email the court heard about was sent in December 2009.

She said they became more comfortable with each other, then things started to become sexual. The jury was shown a picture of Cassie and Diddy on a boat in Miami.
