Courtroom Bombshell: “I Like Guns”
On Tuesday, Capricorn Clark – who worked for Combs as an assistant from 2004 to 2012 – took the stand to describe a string of violent incidents she claimed to have witnessed during her time with the Bad Boy Records founder. Among her revelations was a chilling interaction involving 50 Cent.
Clark testified that after a visit to MTV Studios in New York City — an event attended by both rappers — she rode in an elevator with Combs and an entertainment manager linked to both men, The independent reports.
She recalled an escalating conversation between the two, culminating in Combs allegedly saying, “I don’t like all the back and forth … I like guns,” in a tone she described as “very serious.”
“I Don’t Feel Safe…LOL”
Shortly after the testimony, 50 Cent posted an AI-generated image of himself on a movie set, captioned, “Cut, CUT…Wait a minute PUFFY’s got a gun, I can’t believe this I don’t feel safe…LOL.” The jab didn’t stop there.
Later the same day, he uploaded another AI image — this time of himself looking startled in a Yankees cap — with the caption: “Oh my goodness itty bitty Diddy wants me Dead, I have to lay low, I think I’m gonna hide out at the playoff game tonight. LOL.”
He did just that, attending the Indiana Pacers’ game against the New York Knicks at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, sharing photos of himself enjoying the win.
One showed Tyrese Haliburton sprinting behind him, while another featured rapper Rob49. Yet another photo appeared to show him wearing a black shirt with “Free Diddy” printed across the front — though the original logo was actually Balmain. 50 Cent captioned the altered image: “Bro this game is crazy.”
