In 2019, the US Department of Justice filed conspiracy and money laundering charges against businessman Joe Low, a former member of hip-hop group The Fugees. And two years later, they were also accused of “staging an unregistered covert campaign” that was supposed to persuade the Donald Trump administration to drop a federal investigation into embezzlement of Malaysian development fund 1MDB. By the way, neither the rapper nor the businessman admitted his guilt.

For those who do not understand, what does Leonardo DiCaprio have to do with it, we explain: during the investigation, it was known that more than $ 3.5 billion of real estate embezzled by the rapper and businessman was spent on the purchase of works. to finance art, yachts, planes and the movie “The Wolf of Wall Street” (where Leo plays the main role). Also, sources claim that the actor was in close contact with Joe Low and even received a Picasso painting from his partners for $ 3.2 million. True, it soon became clear that she was bought with stolen money, so she was removed from the star.
