“He [DiCaprio] has nothing to do with any of that world, so for anyone to assume that he will get roped into this based on a few grainy photos that are more than 20 years old is ridiculous,” the source expressed. According to the tipster, Leo is focused on his career and is not at all thinking about Diddy’s federal case, which he has nothing to do with.
Per Daily Mail, Leo was last seen with Diddy in 2019, dancing at his 50th birthday party.
For those not familiar with Diddy’s case and the arrest in question, the Bad Boy Records founder was arrested at the Park Hyatt Hotel in NYC on Monday, September 16, and was indicted on the charges mentioned above. His arrest followed months after his properties in Miami and LA were raided by federal agents in connection to sex trafficking.
In their 14-page indictment against Diddy, prosecutors accuse him of forcing women into “elaborate and produced sex performances” described as “freak-offs” that would sometimes last for several days, exhausting the victims to the point where they needed IV drips to recover. The acts, per the indictment, were often recorded by Diddy without the victims’ knowledge, which he used as collateral to keep the women silent about his deeds. The indictment also mentions the use of drugs as a means to pacify the victims.
Diddy has entered a not-guilty plea since his arrest and will next stand before a judge on October 9 at 2 p.m.
