After previously stating he’d soon be speaking up in the case of Cassie accusing Sean “Diddy” Combs of physical and sexual abuse, the mogul’s former head of security, Roger Bonds, is claiming he not only stopped the Bad Boy founder from abusing the “Me & U” singer, but others, as well.

“It comes a time when you in a situation that may seem like a good situation, but if you not waking up happy, or if you disgruntled, or you really don’t want to be around that person, you find every excuse to get out of there, and I got diabetes,” Bonds said in an Instagram post Wednesday (Nov. 29) of his work relationship with Puff. “So my excuse was, ‘I cant be with you everyday…I’m losing weight’…but in reality, it was that I was sick! I was sick of you, I was sick of everything that was going on around you, I was sick of having to cover up everything that you did. I was sick.”

“Cassie spoke on it,” he went on. “She said yeah, I jumped on it. I jumped in-between it, that wasn’t the only time, it was other times, and it was other people.”

Bonds gave his initial statement after Cassie’s lawsuit went public, as the filing mentions him by name.

“This is not meant to be threats or snitching or anything like that against Cassie or Diddy or anyone else,” Bonds wrote at the time. “This is me telling my truth as I truly remember it for 2 reasons only, 1st because I have 4 daughters so on all dudes my truth as I seen it, saw it and was involved with for yrs.”

“IM WILLING TO TELL MY TRUTH BECAUSE FOR SO MANY YRS I WAS QUIET , Nothing matters now but FAMILY,” he added alongside photos of himself with the “Long Way 2 Go” songstress.

Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy last week, citing physical and sexual abuse. Less than 24 hours later, the pair of exes reached a settlement for an undisclosed amount. Ben Brafman, an attorney representing Combs, soon after released a statement confirming that the settlement doesn’t equate to an admission of guilt.

“Just so we’re clear, a decision to settle a lawsuit, especially in 2023, is in no way an admission of wrongdoing,” wrote Brafman in an emailed statement. “Mr. Combs‘ decision to settle the lawsuit does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims. He is happy they got to a mutual settlement and wishes Ms. Ventura the best.”
