Jared Leto accused of sex assault by 4 women

Four women have accused actor and musician Jared Leto of sexual misconduct during their teenage years between 2002 and 2016, with some alleging sexual assault and statutory rape. Leto, 54, denied these claims in a statement, calling them 'absolutely and categorically false.' The BBC documentary 'Jared Leto: Hollywood’s Dark Secret' features these allegations, though they could not be independently verified by Associated Press. One accuser claimed she was 17 when assaulted, another alleged statutory rape at 17, another reported threats of sexual assault at 19, and another described explicit phone calls and propositions at 16.
