A Norfolk County jury delivered a not-guilty verdict this week for Stefon Diggs, clearing him of misdemeanor assault and felony strangulation charges tied to allegations from his former personal chef, Jamila Adams. The decision, reached on May 5, followed a brief trial that examined claims of a prior relationship and a dispute that prosecutors said escalated into violence. Diggs had denied the accusations, and his legal team argued the evidence did not substantiate the charges.
The outcome quickly drew reactions beyond the courtroom. Speaking on his show It Is What It Is, Cam’ron addressed the verdict with a mix of commentary and humor. About midway through the episode, he said, “City Boys up 200,” before adding, “Congrats Stefon Diggs… I’m happy that you didn’t get indicted for this. Well, rather have to get found guilty of this shit because you obviously had footage and proof.” He also acknowledged uncertainty about the case details, noting, “My bad, City Girls, if y’all felt like y’all got played in the scenario. But I don’t know too much about it.” Cam’ron’s comments about Diggs highlighted how public figures react following high-profile acquittals.
Cam’ron referenced a video circulating online that appeared to show Adams dancing after the alleged incident, suggesting it shaped his reaction. “So, I just ended with City Boys up 200 ‘cause he won the case and I seen a girl twerking after this was supposed to have happened,” he said. “If somebody suffocated me…I’m not getting up twerking.” The clip became a point of discussion among viewers following the verdict, with Diggs’s name continuing to dominate social commentary.
Jokes and Testimony Collide as Trial Ends in Acquittal
The segment also included lighter remarks, with Cam’ron joking, “I don’t want to fuck you no more, just be my chef,” and adding, “Yo, and handle all these bitches that’s going to be coming through… And yo, Cardi coming over. You know what she like? Taco Tuesday, n***a.” This humor intertwined with the trial coverage that repeatedly referenced Diggs.
During the trial, Adams testified that Diggs struck her and placed her in a headlock during a disagreement over payment. Defense attorneys countered by highlighting the absence of medical records and documented injuries. With the acquittal, the legal case has concluded, though public debate around Diggs and the outcome continues.
