Stefon Diggs trial will continue on Tuesday
First day ends during testimony of alleged victim.
The criminal trial against free-agent receiver Stefon Diggs went to trial on Monday. The case will resume on Tuesday morning. The first day consisted of jury selection, opening statements, and the testimony of the alleged victim, Mila Adams.
She claims that Diggs slapped her and then choked her by putting his arm around her neck in December 2025. The opening statements were short and not particularly memorable. The prosecution claims that Diggs assaulted and strangled Adams.
Diggs's lawyers contend it did not happen. Adams completed her direct examination on Monday afternoon. The first day of the trial ended during her cross-examination by Diggs's lawyers.
Here are a couple of takeaways, based on the fact that (once upon a time) I spent 19 years practicing law and navigating the process of trying cases in court. First, Adams's version of the incident seemed plausible and compelling. She said that, during the alleged assault, she urinated.
