Delfonte Diamond was found guilty of two charges of sexual assault of a child in Houston last week and the victim's family spoke exclusively with FOX 26 about the case.

Delfonte Diamond, 34, was facing two charges: aggravated sexual assault of a child under 14 years of age and sexual assault of a child under 17 years of age. The incidents dated back to 2019 and 2020.

A jury found him guilty on both charges. He was sentenced to 25 years for one charge and 20 years for the other, but the sentences will be served concurrently.

Diamond has worked with big names in the NFL such as Tank Dell, Sequon Barkley, and Ceedee Lamb, according to our previous reports.

In a statement posted to Instagram, Rischad Whitfield, "The Footwork King" confirmed that Diamond was a trainer at his facility and worked with athletes across all ages.

"I want to take this moment to pubically and unequivocally denounce the horrific crimes committed by Delfonte Diamond," the post reads.

The post goes on to say he's never received any complaints from athletes, parents or coaches about Diamond and that his heart breaks for the [victim] and their family.
