James also testified that at times some of these personal items, which were supplied to Mr. Combs' hotel room, included "baby oil, AstroGlide, and condoms".

During his cross-examination, the former assistant claimed he was instructed not to submit these "personal items" for reimbursement through the company because they were items he "didn't want to have a record for".

David James also claimed to have seen Sean Combs consume drugs with his friends. He continued by testifying that, on various occasions, he procured substances for Diddy and his friends.

While James did not testify about having any personal knowledge of Freak Offs, the former assistant did recount keying into Diddy's hotel room to "drop off an iPod" and witnessing Cassie Ventura asleep in bed with a naked man who wasn't Sean Combs.

James also testified on the first time he ever interacted with Cassie Ventura, claiming the music mogul's former partner had told him:
