Harvey Weinstein accuser has a panic attack during cross-examination

Jessica Mann testified Friday that Weinstein, the powerful movie producer, forced her to do sex acts and raped her twice over the course of what she described as an abusive relationship, Mann testified.She faced challenging questioning from his attorneys Monday about who had been manipulating whom in their relationship. Monday afternoon, Mann burst into heavy sobs reading a letter she penned to a former boyfriend in May 2014.

Mann's testimony and the cross-examination highlight the thorny questions around consent and unequal power dynamics in the criminal trial. Weinstein is charged with five counts, including rape and predatory sexual assault.Prosecutors have said Weinstein raped and sexually assaulted young women, including Mann, over the course of decades, and that he used his power atop the movie industry to prey on and manipulate young women who hoped to further their careers.

Why do men work so hard to have great riches? As Tony Montana said ' First you get the MONEY then you get the POWER then you get the WOMAN'. Anybody with half a brain cell knows that's what this world is all about. Nobody criticizes Magic Johnson .

Geez, I wonder, wonder, wonder why an aspiring actress would try to butter up a vindictive sociopath that’s in a position to destroy her career and ruin her life. I don’t understand why these actresses agree to meet in hotel rooms. Then, stay even when the guy is in a bathrobe. Also pursue a relation with Weinstein and then accuse him when he finds a new toy. Something is amiss. 🤔
