Overview
- Ladera filed the civil complaint on Sept. 15 naming Beéle and unidentified parties for the nonconsensual distribution of intimate recordings.
- Her filing states she deleted her copy of the video and alleges Beéle was the only other person with access before the leak surfaced online in early September.
- Reports cite damages sought in excess of $50,000 for reputational harm and severe emotional distress linked to the viral spread.
- Beéle denies responsibility, says his team reported the incident to U.S. authorities, and has requested immediate removals of the content from digital platforms.
- Both legal teams say they are pursuing takedowns and continued investigations to identify those who obtained, hosted or distributed the material.
