Former Danity Kane singer Dawn Richard delivered a chilling testimony alleging that Sean “Diddy” Combs once issued a disturbing warning about the consequences of disobedience.

Richard, who rose to fame under Combs’ Bad Boy Records imprint during the early 2000s, recalled being told by the music mogul that “people could go missing” for going against his wishes or failing to follow his orders.

On Friday (May 16), Richard testified that she interpreted the comment as a threat of deadly consequences and that “people could die” for disappointing or angering Combs.

The singer also claimed that witnessing Diddy’s alleged violence toward his former partner, Cassie Ventura, deeply affected her perception of his power and danger.

Richard admitted that her observations shaped how she interacted with him, fearing for her own safety if she ever dared to challenge him.

“I asked myself, ‘If he did that to someone he supposedly loved, what would he do to an employee?’ So I’d approach Mr. Combs with softness,” she explained.

Richard’s testimony is part of a growing number of disturbing allegations leveled against Combs, who is currently facing multiple lawsuits and federal investigations.

The statements from former collaborators like Richard paint a picture of a deeply toxic and threatening work environment under Combs’ leadership, a stark contrast to the glitzy image he cultivated in the public eye.
