新英格兰爱国者队的外接员斯泰丰·迪格斯周五早上因被控勒死而被传讯。
这些指控源于2025年12月的一次事件，据称他袭击了一名私人厨师。
迪格斯没有在听证会上发言，但他的律师代表他提出了无罪抗辩。
法官在他自己担保后释放了他，并命令他不得与受害者接触，包括第三方接触。
根据ABC新闻获得的警方记录，这起事件源于受害者要求Diggs支付她的工资纠纷。
根据警方记录，迪格斯被指控在12月2日勒死或窒息米拉·亚当斯。
据称，Diggs进入了Adams未上锁的卧室，在那里他们开始讨论未支付的工资。根据警方报告，亚当斯告诉警方，在讨论过程中，他很生气，据称打了她一记耳光。
她试图推开他，但是他用肘弯勒住了她的脖子。亚当斯告诉警方，当她试图把他推开时，他抓得更紧了。根据一份警方报告，他随后将她扔在床上。
当她告诉他，她仍然没有收到她的钱，Diggs据称告诉她“谎言”，根据警方的报告。
“斯特丰迪格斯断然否认这些指控。他们是未经证实的，未经证实的，也从未被调查过——因为他们没有发生，”迪格斯的律师大卫·梅尔在12月的一份声明中说。“提出指控的时机和动机非常清楚:它们是雇员-雇主财务纠纷的直接结果，这种纠纷没有以雇员满意的方式解决。斯特丰期待在法庭上确立真相。"
亚当斯告诉警方，根据警方记录，她认为她仍被拖欠一个月的工资。
下一次庭审定于2026年4月1日。
Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs arraigned on charges of strangulation
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs was arraigned on charges of strangulation Friday morning.
The charges stem from a December 2025 incident in which he allegedly assaulted a private chef.
Diggs did not speak at the hearing, but his attorney entered a not guilty plea on his behalf.
The judge released him on his own recognizance and he was ordered to have no contact with the victim, including third party contact.
The incident stemmed from a dispute over wages the victim was requesting Diggs pay her, according to police records obtained by ABC News.
Diggs is accused of strangling or suffocating Mila Adams on Dec. 2, according to police records.
Diggs allegedly entered Adams' unlocked bedroom, where they began to discuss the unpaid wages. Adams told police that during the discussion, he got angry and allegedly smacked her across the face, according to a police report.
She then tried to push him away, but then he choked her using the crook of his elbow around her neck. As she tried to pry him away, he tightened his grip, Adams told police. He then threw her on the bed, according to a police report.
When she told him she still hadn't received her money, Diggs allegedly told her "lies," according to the police report.
"StefonDiggscategorically denies these allegations. They are unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, and were never investigated -- because they did not occur," Diggs' attorney David Meier said in a statement in December."The timing and motivation for making the allegations is crystal clear:they are the direct result of an employee-employer financial dispute that was not resolved to the employee's satisfaction.Stefonlooks forward to establishing the truth in a court of law."
Adams told police she believes she is still owed a month of wages, according to police records.
The next court hearing was set for April 1, 2026.
