Feds Go After DiCaprio Pal Over Alleged $8M Debt
You might recognize Hollywood bigwig Chuck Pacheco as a member of Leonardo DiCaprio’s so-called Wolf Pack, or, as it is alternatively known, the “Pussy Posse.”
Pacheco, who is not only a producer, but a high-powered talent agent and sometime actor—he has appeared in The Hangover and Entourage—has worked with Martin Scorsese, Bruce Willis, Mike Tyson, and Elvis’ granddaughter Riley Keough, and runs in the same circles as Ben Affleck, Nick Cassavetes, and Woody Harrelson. He has made headlines for, among other things, tangling with paparazzi while partying with Jamie Foxx.
But there appears to be a far less-glittery side to Pacheco’s seemingly charmed life. According to a bombshell search warrant affidavit obtained by The Daily Beast, the movie mogul also allegedly owes nearly $8 million in back taxes to the IRS, which has been unable to get its money because Pacheco claims he’s broke.
