“I checked out and decided to endure it. That was the safest thing I could do.” Harvey’s trial continues with testimony from a former Project Runway production assistant: via USATODAY

NEW YORK – Former production assistant Mimi Haleyi sobbed as she told jurors Monday at Harvey Weinstein's sex crimes trial that she tried to fight off the movie mogul and told him “no, no, no” while he sexually assaulted her.

“I couldn’t get away from him at all. … I checked out and decided to endure it," she said."That was the safest thing I could do.” The then-revered Hollywood honcho “got offended,” she said."He stepped back and said, ‘What have you heard?’ ” Weeks later, Hast said, Haleyi went to a hotel room to meet Weinstein because"she saw no way out." She said Haleyi was sexually assaulted again, although Haleyi didn't mention this subsequent encounter in 2017.
