“Did Diddy try to kill Kid Cudi?”

 

In 2012, only a few gossip pages were wondering this question with the vast majority of readers wondering - “who even comes up with these crazy rumors?”

 

Now, in 2025, it might not just be a rumor.

 

Kid Cudi takes the witness stand to testify against Sean Combs. The man who allegedly broke into Kid Cudi’s house, lit his car on fire, and according to a former assistant - the man who wanted Kid Cudi dead.

 

This is Kid Cudi’s full testimony in the USA v. Sean Combs case and the reactions of celebrities turning on him after his story.

Kid Cudi Describes Diddy "Like Marvel Supervillain" Then Called Out By Young Thug As A "RAT"

Two full days after the start of the “Diddy Trial” - a new lawsuit is filed. A woman is accusing Sean Combs of SA and states that she recalls his private part being an “itty bitty Diddy.” 

 

She includes a photo of a teeny tiny tootsie roll for reference. 

 

This is just one of the many civil lawsuits filed against Sean Combs. Many of the people that have sued him are also showing up to the trial to testify against him. Which begs the question, how many more witnesses will be coming to get justice?

 

Dawn Richards, a former band mate of Sean Combs, shows up in court seemingly ready to take him down. To finally tell her story.

 

She says she watched him attack Cassie with a skillet. That the next morning he threatened her and everyone around them to stay silent. Or else…

 

But once the cross examination by Diddy’s attorneys begin - it feels like her entire story starts unraveling. Or is that just what Diddy’s attorneys want us to think? This is the truth behind her brutal testimony.

#5- The Hello Kitty Murder

64 squares on a chessboard. And each represented a victim he viciously murdered. 

His trademark? Shoving a vodka bottle into the cracks of the skull he just split. The victims were almost always still alive during this. 

Obsessed with the Queen's Gamebit? Got a new fascination with chess? He was obsessed too. Meet the chessboard killer.

#24- The Chessboard Killer (Serial Killer Alexander Pichushkin)

When he was found dead at the bottom of a building in Beijing - the police found two notes of interest. His suicide note where he named his killer. That seemed odd?

And another note - a piece of paper that was handwritten. Where he had promised $2 million dollars to someone within the next 120 days.

Could that even be a real contract? Would a handwritten random note be used in the court of law? Why was this successful tech CEO so scared of losing $2 million dollars? Why had he promised it in the first place?

The answer will lead you to the person that pushed him off the edge of the building.

#175: The Mind Games of The Pick-Me Girl Killer (Death of WePhone CEO)

The dead list - well, he called it the “List of the Doomed.”

On there was a long meticulously written list of 50+ local young girls. In the years to come he would sit down, pull out his little dead list, and in a red pen, he would methodically write “D” next to a name.

D for dead. Another one is dead.

It didn’t matter if the girls on the list knew they were doomed. It didn’t matter how much they tried to protect themselves. Once they were on the Doomed List they were going to die a painful death.

Not a single girl on the list would survive.

#176: Torture Deaths of the “Ghost Girls”

Summer in Italy - where else would you want to be?

Marco was a lifeguard working at one of Italy’s beautiful seaside resorts. After his shift, he rushed over to his girlfriend’s house, and ate dinner with her entire family.

They all got along. It’s like he was part of the family already.

Even after dinner, Marco wanted to wash the scent of saltwater off his body and asked if he could take a bath.

Of course they let him. And in that little bathroom, Marco would die. The house was filled with people. How did nobody know what happened? Or maybe, they all have their own secrets to protect.

#177: The LifeGuard Murder In Italy (Case of Marco Vannini)

The community was relieved. The killer couple was put behind bars and finally, they could relax. Thankfully the police were able to catch them after their first victim… the thought of having a serial killer on the loose was spine-chilling.

They all felt safe.

But many many miles away in a public restroom were the scribbles…

“I killed Tanya. Yes, I’m sick, but I enjoyed myself. People took the blame and I’m free :)”

A happy face. The happy face serial killer was free and ready to kill again.

Welcome to the BDSM Dungeon party. If you’ve never been or if you’ve never heard of such a thing - you might think it sounds scary

But it’s not scary at all. In fact, it can be very fun if that’s your thing.

Bob’s favorite part of the dungeon party? Well, he couldn’t choose, was it the giant orgy room in the center of the building, or the crosses that you can tie people to, maybe it’s the playrooms where your deepest desires come true.

This type of party is normally a great time between consenting adults but Bob had other plans. He didn’t care about the BDSM community - all he cared about was murder.

#180: Robert’s “BDSM” Dungeon Parties & Murder

In the comfort of her own private living room, Rachel complained about her bad back to her husband. They needed to drive across the border to see a specialist.

In Caroline’s place, Caroline argued with her husband about going on a double-date road trip for Rachel’s bad back. Her husband argued it was going to be boring, but he caved eventually.

So it was settled the two couples would be road-tripping to Finland.

Sounds like a mundane conversation? Boring almost?

Then why were agents carefully transcribing every single word that they heard inside Rachel and Caroline’s house? Why were they listening through their electronic devices?

Rachel and Caroline were seemingly normal people… why did government agents care to spy on them? And are they listening to you right now?

#182: The People Who Spy On Us (KGB & MI6 Spy Kidnapping)

“Big John” loved his little apartment. It wasn’t nice but it was his.

He was in his 40’s and he wanted to decorate it with whatever style he pleased. His bedroom was more of a game room with a mattress on the ground.

The walk-in closet was wall-to-wall with the newest and latest games. Nintendo games, board games, barbies, you name it. His drawers were stuffed full with candy and his mini-fridge only had soda in it.

The only thing is - none of these things were for Big John.
