"Jamila Adams testified that Diggs "smacked me with an open hand" and choked her during an incident at his home, but the defense countered with a lack of evidence."
"Defense attorney Andrew Kettlewell emphasized that there were no witnesses to the alleged assault and no medical records or photographic evidence to substantiate Adams' claims."
Stefon Diggs was found not guilty of felony strangulation and misdemeanor assault charges after a jury deliberated for less than two hours. The charges stemmed from an alleged incident with his private chef, Jamila Adams, over unpaid wages. Adams claimed Diggs hit and choked her, but the defense argued there was no evidence to support her claims, as no medical records or photos were presented. Diggs did not testify during the trial and maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings.
