Disney Employee Caught Filming Teens—Lawsuit Reveals Shocking Details

by

Disney World is dealing with a concerning legal issue following allegations by a family that one of their employees clandestinely recorded under the skirt of a 14-year-old girl during a trip to Hollywood Studios. They also claim that despite past, similar accusations against this employee, Disney did not take action and allowed them to continue working.

In 2023, Jorge Diaz Vega, a park employee, was apprehended by Orange County deputies following their discovery of around 500 secretly taken upskirt videos on his phone. It’s alleged that a significant number of these recordings were captured while Diaz Vega was working at “Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities” in Galaxy’s Edge, a Star Wars-themed attraction located within Walt Disney World.

Among the videos examined by investigators, there was reportedly footage of an underage girl who had accompanied her grandmother from Michigan to the park. As stated in the court filing made last Friday, Diaz Vega is accused of dropping a toy near the teenager, then bending down to pick it up and secretly placing his phone under her skirt to record.

Upon understanding the situation, the girl’s immediate response was an intense emotional and bodily outburst. The court case states that she started sobbing hysterically and shouting, then rushed into a close-by bathroom where she threw up and experienced a severe panic attack.

However, the accusation that might be most incriminating doesn’t revolve around what occurred to the teenager; instead, it centers on what Disney is alleged to have neglected to stop.

The legal action alleges that Disney was previously informed about inappropriate behavior by Diaz Vega. More specifically, it suggests he had previously been discovered secretly filming under a female colleague’s skirt—yet they allowed him to continue working and even kept him near guests, including children.

In this case, I stand by the claim that Disney knowingly fostered a questionable atmosphere, enabling one of their employees to surreptitiously videotape a minor relative of the Plaintiff, allegedly capturing images under the child’s attire, as stated in the lawsuit.

The family is taking legal action against both Disney and Diaz Vega, claiming they were careless, violated their privacy, and caused severe emotional harm. They assert that the company didn’t fulfill its fundamental duty to ensure guest safety, especially for children.

It’s stated in court documents that Diaz Vega is involved in two cases related to secretly filming people, which is a criminal offense. His lawyers are working towards having him declared unfit to face trial due to mental incapacity. According to investigators, Diaz Vega confessed to making similar recordings over a period of six years.

As a film enthusiast penning this critique, I’ve noticed an intriguing silence from Disney in response to recent reports and allegations. WESH 2 News has brought attention to a lawsuit and a previous incident involving a colleague, yet Disney remains tight-lipped on the matter. Furthermore, there’s been no clarification whether Mr. Diaz Vega, prior to his arrest, faced any internal disciplinary actions from the company. It leaves us, the public and fans, eagerly waiting for more information.

During the progression of the court case, the accusations are shining a critical light on Disney’s internal monitoring procedures, specifically raising questions about whether the company failed to address warning signs that might have safeguarded guests from an accused predator within their organization.

If the assertions hold up, Disney’s choice to retain Diaz Vega might be seen as one of the most significant lapses in guest safety in the park’s recent past.

In this version, I’ve used “lapse” instead of “failure,” and “seen as” rather than “could become” to make it more natural and easy to read.
