The charges were first reported by Boston 25 News. According to a police report, made public Tuesday by a judge and obtained by Boston media, a private chef who had been working for Diggs said he tried to choke her when they got in a fight earlier this month about money the chef believed"
"On Tuesday, Diggs's name appeared on the daily list for Dedham District Court, prompting today's news reports. At the hearing, a lawyer for Diggs, Michael DiStefano, asked a judge to seal the police report, Boston 25 reported, and added that a financial settlement was already in the works. The judge, per Boston 25, said she would make a decision soon and she was true to her word."
Stefon Diggs was charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery. A private chef said Diggs tried to choke her during a fight this month about money she believed he owed. The chef said she worked in Diggs’s Dedham home since July and was paid monthly instead of weekly. She said Diggs told her in early November to vacate her room for guests and would not pay for the lost work week or provide money to get home. Diggs’s lawyer asked to seal the police report and said a financial settlement was in the works; Judge Jeanmarie Carroll denied the sealing request and made the report public.
