She couldn’t have known at the time how many other women had faced the same decision. Two years later, in 2017, Gutierrez chose to break her NDA, playing the Weinstein recording for The New Yorker’s Ronan Farrow. “I hope the other girls get justice,” she told him.
The testimony that may pose the greatest risk to Weinstein’s defense is that of Annabella Sciorra, who has said Weinstein raped her in the early 1990s and afterward attempted to destroy her career. Prosecutors are hoping Sciorra’s account will convince the jury that Weinstein was a serial offender, the gravest charge brought against him under New York’s predatory-sexual-assault law, which carries a minimum sentence of ten years to life in prison.

What’s left after the bones are picked is around $18.5 million, Fegan tells me. “We recognize that there’s not enough money,” she says. “For what Harvey did, there’s no amount of money that could really heal any of these women.” She has defended taking up to 25 percent of that pot in attorneys’ fees, calling it “less than the value of time spent on the case using industry-standard-defined billing rates.
irin Can you get all of Trump’s accusers together like this? He is scum
NellSco irin The only reason 'nothing in the case has been simple' is that Weinstein is a once-powerful man who still has lots of money. That's it.
irin Weinstein Why is this 'gentleman' released on bond? Rich, white , old and disgusting?
irin His lack of talent and objectification of women is so obvious in his work. He’s joe average and has created a false cap on the potential of women by upholding ‘average’ as some kind of awe inspiring level women can attain to. So glad his ‘sh-art’ will get examined for what it is
irin cant wait for Trump to face his rape charges
irin In case you're still wondering what sort of evil is responsible for HarveyWeinstein and his ilk, this song explains a lot:
irin wtf is this clown show
irin Listen and see survivors. It is critical to counteract the constant images of alleged and convicted perpetrator(s) with the stories and images of those who have been assaulted. MeToo
irin Love this statement; so strong. It’s happened all my adult life (& before). I’ve been many of these shapes and sizes; I’m strong & highly educated - yet it happened. Because society had unwritten rules like: women who get into these situations are tarts, unworthy, to blame...
irin Well, he's not on trial for 99% of the accusations because there when a women trades sex, for opportunities, she's part of that transaction
irin And they all were willing to guzzle his manjuice for a shot at being a Hollywood celebrity. I have very little sympathy for these women.
RoArquette irin Powerful
irin All of these woman were silent for years. More traded sexual favors for movie rolls...... looking at you Jennifer Lawrence. Even more knew of his behavior and said nothing.
irin this is kiiiinda cringey lol but not nearly as cringey as Harvey is gonna be in prison :3
irin Now do Trump.
irin Nope, We should just blame ALL men...
irin Ole Harvey wouldn’t cull very much, would he?
irin Democrat men are all pervs.
irin Weinstein is innocent. His 'victims' were not naive kids but grown up women who lined up willingly to his hotel room to advance their careers. But casting couch didnt work for his accusers as it worked for all the women whom Harvey made rich and famous, hence why they'r after him
irin Now do POTUS
irin Pay attention Oprah Metoo --- The Reckoning ... HarveyWeinstein
irin realDonaldTrump should also be convicted.
irin ⚖🌹 Justice for the Ladies! 🌹⚖ HarveyWeinstein
irin Let’s not forget Oprah knew and did nothing. She hide her best friends rapist behavior and stayed quiet to this day. MuteOprah
irin It is pretty simple, MSM keeps trying to make it “complicated”.
irin Weinstein is suffering the fate of many primitive men at the dawn of an enlightened age. He's confused/bitter bc he didn't do anything that hadn't been done since ancient times, when women were slaves, chattel and toys. Welcome to the new world, dick.
