Doc Screwed Over Ian, Made Me a Fool

Ian Diaz‘s best friend Leslie is disgusted by the outcome of “A Toxic Love Story” … accusing the folks behind the Netflix documentary of pulling a fast one by making her look like a lovesick dope.

Here’s the deal … Leslie became a lightning rod for trolls who say she’s blind to Ian’s crimes because she’s madly in love — even though he’s in the slammer for a cyberstalking plot involving his former wife Angela Connell Diaz and ex-girlfriend Michelle Hadley.

Now, Leslie’s slamming filmmakers for making her come off that way … insisting she never should’ve trusted them.

Leslie tells TMZ … “I expected them to do the research on all they heard from all those filmed for this doc. They were given so much information — and then decided to abort the truth and ignore all the actual evidence.”

Adding insult to injury — Leslie claims the doc crew did her dirty by only using a short snippet of a two-day interview … just to have a cop from the investigation that targeted Ian dismiss her meager contribution as coming from a lovesick fool.

She also says the narrative that Ian refused to participate in the doc needs some serious nuance. She says he was down — but filmmakers allegedly wanted to interview him over a series of phone calls. Ian wasn’t willing to burn through his allotted prison phone time because he’s got a wife and kid, so it was scrapped.

As for the haters and trolls … Leslie couldn’t care less about the keyboard warriors — she still completely supports Ian, telling us … “If this documentary would’ve given a robust report of the actual evidence involved in his conviction, more people would be speaking about the inconsistencies and the flat-out agenda to put him behind bars.”

As we reported … Leslie was among those who wrote emotional letters to the judge, asking for leniency when Ian was ultimately sentenced to a decade behind bars.

We reached out to Netflix … so far, no word back.
