Cassie Ventura’s harrowing turn as the star witness in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ trial is expected to end Friday after four electrifying days — and Manhattan federal prosecutors plan to bring other alleged victims to the stand.

Dawn Richard, a singer in the Combs-founded group Danity Kane, is slated to be one of the next witnesses.

She has accused the Bad Boy Records mogul of once breaking into her dressing room and groping her breasts and butt — as well as claimed to have witnessed Combs slamming Ventura against a wall.

The Danity Kane alum will be joined by two other alleged victims set to testify at the sex-trafficking trial.

An anonymous woman known as “Jane” — who started dating Combs in 2020 — is slated to tell the jury about how she was expected to have sex with escorts without a condom against her wishes, prosecutors said.

She will describe a horrific night when Combs “viciously” attacked her, “punched her in the face while she was curled up in a ball on the ground,” and slapped her “so hard she fell over,” prosecutor Emily Johnson said during opening statements Monday.

Another victim, “Mia” — who worked for Combs as his personal assistant for several years — will testify about being forced to perform oral sex on the music mogul and also being raped by him, according to prosecutors.

Other witnesses slated to testify are male sex workers who participated in Combs’ “freak-off” sex romps and former employees of his companies.

Aubrey O’Day, another Danity Kane member, has also reportedly been subpoenaed to testify in the bombshell case.

Ventura was the third witness to take the stand for the prosecution, following Israel Florez, a Los Angeles Police Department officer who was a security guard at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City at the time of Combs’ caught-on-camera attack on Ventura in 2016.

Daniel Phillip, a male escort, also testified earlier this week, telling jurors about being hired to have sex with Ventura as Combs watched during “freak-offs.”
