Stefon Diggs' Accuser Ordered to Produce Instagram Messages and Travel Records
A federal judge ordered Christopher Griffith to hand over his entire Instagram direct‑message history with NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs within 14 days.
The order also requires Griffith to provide all documentation of his travel to Maryland for the weekend of May 20‑23, 2023, including flight bookings, hotel reservations and ride‑share receipts. The judge denied Diggs' request for sanctions against Griffith.
The dispute centers on Griffith's claim that Diggs drugged him with candy and made unwanted sexual advances at Diggs' Maryland residence in May 2023. Diggs filed a defamation lawsuit asserting the accusations were fabricated; Griffith filed a countersuit alleging sexual assault, battery and conspiracy. Cardi B publicly defended Diggs, calling Griffith a "light skin albino lizard." Griffith says he has already produced more than 100 pages of communications, but the court still demands the full DM history. The litigation remains ongoing.
