Defendant: Leo DiCaprio's Story is a Cover-Up

Aretha Wilson, the woman accused of slashing Leonardo DiCaprio‘s face with a glass, now claims that Leo started the confrontation between the two.

The woman’s lawyer requested a toxicology report on Leo from the evening the events occurred as well as his medical records, according to TMZ. Aretha‘s counsel also claims that Leo didn’t report the incident for three days and that witnesses’ testimonies don’t line up.

Leonardo DiCaprio has fully cooperated with prosecutors on this case for over five years,” his lawyer, Blair Berk, tells JustJared.com.

“It is outrageous that this woman – who has a long and violent history, and became a fugitive to avoid standing trial in the United States when she assaulted our client five years ago – is now making up lies to further avoid responsibility in this matter. This is a classic example of the victim of a violent crime becoming the victim once again.”
