It’s official. One of the biggest celebrity donors to Hillary Clinton is not only a total creep, he’s a rapist.
At least 3 women have stepped forward to formally accuse Harvey Weinstein of rape.
One of his accusers, Asia Argento, confirmed her account to CNN today.
Argento says forcibly performed oral sex on her, and she’s been traumatized by the encounter ever since.
“Just his body, his presence, his face, bring me back to the little girl that I was when I was twenty-one,” Argento lamented.
“When I see him, it makes me feel little and stupid and weak. After the rape, he won.”
Weinstein was also caught on audio in a “sting” operation, admitting to groping a woman multiple times and trying to lure her to his room.
More from CNN:
The NYPD confirmed that it investigated a “misdemeanor sexual abuse complaint against Harvey Weinstein” in March 2015. The tape was handed over to the District Attorney in Manhattan. The D.A. office said Tuesday that the recording is “horrifying,” but it was insufficient to prove a crime had occurred.
“If we could have prosecuted Harvey Weinstein for the conduct that occurred in 2015, we would have,” the office said.
Representatives for Weinstein said they had no comment on the audio tape.
Farrow’s article also advanced the widely-held theory that some of Weinstein’s colleagues knew about misconduct.
“Sixteen former and current executives and assistants at Weinstein’s companies told me that they witnessed or had knowledge of unwanted sexual advances and touching at events associated with Weinstein’s films and in the workplace,” Farrow wrote. “They and others describe a pattern of professional meetings that were little more than thin pretexts for sexual advances on young actresses and models.”
He described, in chilling detail, a culture of fear that surrounded Weinstein.
“Many said that they had seen Weinstein’s associates confront and intimidate those who crossed him, and feared that they would be similarly targeted,” Farrow wrote. “Four actresses, including Mira Sorvino and Rosanna Arquette, told me they suspected that, after they rejected Weinstein’s advances or complained about them to company representatives, Weinstein had them removed from projects or dissuaded people from hiring them.”
Sorvino said on Twitter on Tuesday, “Very proud of my sisters in spirit who had the courage to break the silence. Very hard for me — more so for others. We took our power back!!”
In response to the new set of allegations, Weinstein’s spokeswoman also said, “Mr. Weinstein obviously can’t speak to anonymous allegations, but with respect to any women who have made allegations on the record, Mr. Weinstein believes that all of these relationships were consensual.”
