Diplo Denies Distributing Revenge Porn After Woman Files Restraining Order Against Him
Mega DJ and producer Diplo is making headlines, but not for his music this time around. Thomas Wesley Pentz, known globally as Diplo, is slamming allegations that he distributed revenge porn after a woman, whose identity has been kept private, has filed a restraining order against the music giant.
Famed attorney Lisa Bloom, who is representing the woman stated,
“I am proud to represent my client, a woman who has made the choice to stand up for her rights. After vetting her claims and speaking to three other women, we find her to be brave and credible. In all cases, witnesses are essential, and we encourage anyone with information regarding this case or this defendant to reach out to us.”
Diplo’s attorney Bryan Freedman responded,
“Unfortunately, this individual has been harassing my client and his family for more than a year and has repeatedly refused to stop doing so. To be clear, in no way has my client violated any law. In fact, he has repeatedly made it clear that he wants nothing whatsoever to do with this person – and simply needs her ongoing harassment of his family to end.”
Lisa Bloom stated in an interview the the explicit photo in question was shared by “a front account and a fake account” and claims that her client and Diplo were the only ones privy to the photo.
According to Lisa Bloom, the photo was posted after her client publicly accused Diplo of filming sexual activity without her consent in an Oct. 26 Twitter thread.
It is not known at the moment if a judge has signed off on the restraining order.
