Every year, millions of Disney fans travel to Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort to experience wholesome, family-friendly entertainment. So many Guests love the sense of safety and harmony that exists within the “Disney Bubble,” and it is a big reason why Guests continue to come back to the Parks year after year.
This is the reason why it is so terrifying to learn of some incredibly criminal behavior that has been occurring at Walt Disney World Resort. It has been announced that Orange County deputies have arrested a Disney Cast Member after it was revealed he had taken hundreds of nonconsensual lude photos of Guests at Walt Disney World.
Visiting Walt Disney World Resort should be a safe experience for every Guest. Unfortunately, hundreds of Guests have unknowingly been the victim of a Cast Member. Jorge Diazvega, 26, has been working at Walt Disney World for at least six years. At the time of the arrest, Diazvega was working at Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities. This shop is located within Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
On March 31, 2023, one Guest was visiting Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities when they witnessed Diazvega record an “upskirt video of a female Guests.” This report was immediately taken over by the Orange County deputies, who arrived at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to interview Diazvega.
It was revealed that Diazvega has over 5oo videos up the skirts or dresses of Walt Disney World Resort Guests on his device. He described his recordings as a “guilty pleasure” that he used for “sexual gratification.”
This information was enough for police to arrest Diazvega in late March. He was charged with video voyeurism and was released on a $2,500 bond days after his arrest. As of now, Diazvega is out of prison, and his case is still pending. The Walt Disney Company has confirmed that Diazvega does not work for the company anymore.
