Diggs Trial: Chef Claims Assault After Miami Trip Drama
4 May
Summary
- Chef accused Diggs of assault and strangulation charges.
- Relationship began as friendship, became sexual, then employer.
- Deleted text messages due to fear of perception, defense claims.
Stefon Diggs, formerly of the New England Patriots, is currently on trial for assault and felony strangulation charges. The accusations stem from his former personal chef, Jamila Adams, who detailed their complicated relationship. Adams testified their connection began through Instagram, evolving from a friendship into a sexual relationship before she was offered a live-in chef position in July 2025 for $2,000 per week.
By late November 2025, tensions rose within Diggs' household, involving a dispute with another woman named Lindsay. Adams alleged she was excluded from a Miami trip due to this drama, leading to an argument with Diggs that she claims resulted in physical assault. During her testimony, Adams confessed to deleting some text messages prior to their submission to the police, citing fear.
Diggs' defense team maintains his innocence, asserting no assault or strangulation occurred. The trial, expected to conclude within three days, continues to unfold with Adams' admission about the deleted messages becoming a focal point.
