“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.

New Diddy Lawsuit Has Image of “Tootsie Roll” & The TRUTH Behind Dawn Richard’s Brutal Testimony

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)

She wakes up in a room with no memory of where she is and even who she is... What's even more alarming is that her kidnapper tells her that she will only survive this if she falls in love with him. 

Anytime the kidnapper believes it isn't going as expected he drugs up the victim and resets her memory once more...

Today's episode is a Baking A Mystery which is a completely fictional story! If you are only into true crime no worries we post every single Wednesday!

Kidnapped Victim Forced To "Fall In Love" With Her Captor

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.

#178: The Happy Face Serial Killer

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)

Chloe was used to her pictures being posted on the internet. She was a model, after all. She posted on social media and updated her followers on her personal life. But she had never been posted on this type of website before in her life.

It’s the type of website that you and I probably couldn’t access. You can’t just Google it. No. It exists only in the deep layers of the dark web.

The post read: “Chloe. Born in the UK. Abducted in Italy. 19 years old. Measurements: 35DD.

Starting bid: $300k.

Auction open: July 16, 2017.”

Her auction would be seen all over the world.

#183: The Dark Web Human Auction + Kidnapping (Case of Chloe Ayling)

Both men were racing in their cars for different reasons.

Peter was stepping on the pedal to his wife. She was sick, and he needed to get to her ASAP. He was worried for her.

Larry was in his car - racing to his girlfriend, who wasn’t picking up his calls. He was worried for her.

Both men were gripping their steering wheels till their knuckles turned white. They were both racing to the same woman. They both knew it. Maybe they hoped whoever got their first would get her love.

But both would walk away without her. She would choose neither of them because someone had taken her life.

#185: The Mistress, The Killer & The Hitlist

Nicole’s phone had been ringing nonstop. It felt like the end of her 15-year-old life. Someone was going around calling Nicole’s friends to tell them nasty rumors about Nicole. How she had no eyebrows, she got ugly, she was talking bad about them, and how she had AIDs.

It sounds ridiculous, but to Nicole this was her life. Someone was out there trying to take her down. Take her crown of being the most popular girl in school.

She would not stand for it. When she found out who did it - she would do anything to stop them.

This is the story of how 8 high school kids played a hand in a 14-year-old girl’s brutal murder.

#190: How a High School Party Left 1 Murdered and 8 in Prison

Kenny was ecstatic - he was finally moving to LA where he would chase his dreams. To make things better his older cousin was letting him stay at his house. He would also teach him a few lessons on how to be successful.

“Lesson #1: You gotta hit the bullseye. Make it your target.

Right between the legs.

Always use a wet towel. It doesn’t leave bruise marks.

Oh, and Kenny? Don’t chicken out when you strangle them.”

The two cousins would be known as the “Hillside Stranglers” and they would leave behind a trail of bodies all over the hills of LA.

Rec: “The Hillside Stranglers” - by Darcy O’Brien (best deep dive on this case out there but it is really intense.)
