The jury deliberated for roughly 90 minutes before reaching their verdict. They sought clarification from the judge regarding the criteria for assault and battery during their discussions.

Jamila Adams, Diggs’ former live-in chef, accused him of choking and slapping her at his home on December 2, 2025. Initially, Adams did not press charges but did so a week later. This timeline raised questions about the credibility of her claims.

Diggs pleaded not guilty to the charges. His defense argued that there was no credible evidence supporting Adams’ allegations. They suggested that her actions were an attempt to extract money from him.

Adams testified she earned approximately $2,000 per week for her work as Diggs’ chef. Her attorney sought $5.5 million in damages, claiming emotional distress due to the alleged incident.

Diggs was released by the Patriots in March 2026 amid these allegations. His attorney expressed satisfaction with the jury’s decision, stating, “No assault ever occurred.”

Mitchell Shuster, Diggs’ attorney, remarked on how this case impacted him personally and professionally. He noted that the verdict reflected the jury’s ability to see through the accusations.

Judge Jeanmarie Carroll commended the jury for their seriousness and integrity throughout the trial process. The legal implications of this case may continue to unfold in the coming weeks as both parties assess their next steps.
