Former Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs was found not guilty of assaulting his private chef in a pay dispute. The four-time Pro Bowl wideout was facing strangulation charge and a misdemeanor assault and battery charge stemming from the alleged dispute. According to court records, the chef told officers she and Diggs argued about money he owed her for work. During the Dec. 2 encounter at his home in Dedham, she said, he “smacked her across the face” and then “tried to choke her using the crook of his elbow around her neck,” leaving her feeling short of breath. Diggs, whose attorney said he denied the charges, was released by the Patriots in March.
