A LoyaltyLobby reader alerted us about a development in the P Diddi trial in Los Angeles, which now has an IHG and InterContinental Century City link.

The victim of the “freak-off” assault that took place at this hotel is in settlement talks with the IHG and InterContinental and is expecting to get $10M.

P Diddi had paid $50K for the video footage of the incident to disappear, but the video has surfaced and been published by CNN and other media outlets, and it is clear where this took place.

Here’s an excerpt from Variety:

Casandra “Cassie” Ventura revealed Friday that she is expecting a $10 million settlement from InterContinental in relation to the 2016 hotel incident at the heart of the Sean “Diddy” Combs sex trafficking trial.
The 2016 hotel assault has been referred to by Combs’ lawyers as “indefensible” and “dehumanizing.” They do not, however, believe it is evidence that Combs engaged in sex trafficking and racketeering, which is what he is charged with.
Recounting the events of that day, Ventura said she was in a hotel room with Combs and a male escort participating in a “freak-off,” one of Combs’ drug-fueled sex parties that could last days on end. Attempting to leave the “freak-off” before Combs decided it was over, Ventura grabbed her bags and headed to the elevator. Combs then followed her out of the room wearing only a towel and began beating her. He then returned to his room and Ventura exited the property.

Conclusion

InterContinental Century City is currently closed. It was previously a Park Hyatt and a JW Marriott hotel.

I have stayed there numerous times when it was an InterContinental and a Park Hyatt. It is unclear when it will reopen and under what brand.
