'Mia' testifies about the first time Combs allegedly sexually assaulted her
"Mia," the prosecution witness testifying under a pseudonym, testified that the first time Sean Combs allegedly sexually assaulted her was a few months into her job as his personal assistant, while they were at the Plaza Hotel in New York for his 40th birthday.
"Did you ever want to engage in sexual activity with Mr. Combs?" prosecutor Madison Smyser asked.
Looking down, "Mia" softly testified that she did not.
Combs had rented the Penthouse and asked to speak with "Mia" alone in the kitchen, she told the court.
"He was saying what a good job I was doing and that I didn't have to be nervous or scared to come to him," "Mia" testified. "He said he noticed I was doing a great job, sort of like, 'We're going to be working closer together.'"
"Mia" testified that Combs gave her two shots of alcohol. "I remember thinking, like, whoa, did I not eat or something, because they affected me, like, I felt like they hit me kinda hard," "Mia" testified. "I was in my 20s in New York and two shots would not have made me feel that way."
According to her testimony, "Mia" said she remembered standing against a wall.
"All of a sudden his face got closer, my eyes couldn't focus on his face because it was so close," "Mia" told the court. "He put his arm next to my head against the wall and leaned in to kiss me and put his other hand up the side of my dress."
Smyser asked, "Did you want Mr. Combs to kiss you?"
"No," "Mia" testified.
"Did Mr. Combs put his hand up your dress?" the prosecutor asked.
"Yes," "Mia" told the court.
"Did you want him to do that?" Smyser asked.
"No," "Mia" testified.
That alleged incident was not the only time that Combs made an unwanted sexual advance to her, "Mia" told the court.
