The disgraced movie mogul returns to L.A. to face allegations he sexually assaulted five women between 2004 and 2013. Among those expected to testify is the governor's wife.
An Italian model-actress met with Los Angeles police detectives for more than two hours Thursday morning, providing a detailed account of new allegations that movie mogul Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted her at a hotel in 2013.
“He grabbed me by the hair and forced me to do something I did not want to do,” she told The Times in 2017. “He then dragged me to the bathroom and forcibly raped me.” Young said she repeatedly told the mogul to stop, but Weinstein forcefully grabbed and pinched her breast with one hand while masturbating with the other, Young alleged.Lauren Young, whose allegation of assault at a Beverly Hills hotel led to criminal charges against Harvey Weinstein, testifies in his New York trial.
Weinstein’s prior conviction in New York and the reality that many potential jurors will have formed an opinion about Weinstein and the #MeToo movement puts the defense at a disadvantage, Werksman said. “She Said,” a film chronicling the efforts of journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey to report on Weinstein’s alleged abuses, will also debut as the trial is underway.
“I’ll put it in plain English: They will be attacked by the defense and they’re going to need to be able to withstand that attack,” she said. “There will be every attempt to discredit them, to attack their motives to suggest that they are inconsistent in what they stated in police reports and in discussions with prosecutors.”An aspiring actress who alleges she was raped at least two times by Harvey Weinstein has testified in the fallen Hollywood mogul’s criminal trial.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Lisa Lench has barred cameras from the courtroom. And although up to 75 reporters were permitted in court for each day of Weinstein’s Manhattan trial, Lench is allowing only a dozen journalists to attend daily proceedings in L.A.
