The Joker, Morbius, and Skeletor Actor Jared Leto Accused of Criminal Sexual Conduct by Four Women
Four women have accused Hollywood actor Jared Leto of criminal sexual conduct, according to BBC reporting, with the alleged offences said to have occurred when the women were teenagers. The claims span a period between 2002 and 2016, when Leto, now 54, was in his 30s and 40s, and form part of a new BBC documentary examining his conduct.
The claims feature in a BBC documentary titled "Jared Leto: Hollywood's Dark Secret", which includes testimony from ten women, nine of whom are speaking publicly for the first time. The BBC said it was unable to obtain a response from Leto despite repeated attempts. This follows separate allegations of sexual impropriety made by nine women last year, which Leto denied. The actor, known for roles including the Joker, Morbius, Skeletor in "Masters of the Universe" and Rayon in "Dallas Buyers Club" (for which he won an Oscar), has also previously faced claims he sent unsettling gifts, including a dead hog and a box containing a live rat, to "Suicide Squad" co-stars in 2016.
