Harvey Weinstein sexual assault case in danger of falling apart
2018-10-11
[PAGESIX] The sexual assault case against Harvey Weinstein is in danger of crumbling after Manhattan prosecutors found an accuser’s written account of her encounter with the movie mogul that suggests it was consensual, multiple sources told The Post.

Lucia Evans has accused Weinstein of forcing her to perform oral sex on him inside his Tribeca office in 2004, when she was a 21-year-old college student and aspiring actress. She is one of three women whose allegations of sexual assault are being prosecuted by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.’s office.

But a prior employer of Evans turned over the personal writings she’d left on the company computer, which appear to contradict her grand jury testimony, a law enforcement source said.

#3  You know Herb, given the reputation actors/actresses had in the old days, I doubt that this is a new problem.

#2  What nobody admits is that a lot of these women weren't forced, they did it willingly to get acting jobs.

Uma Thurman is one of them who took the deal. Weinstein kept his part of the bargain, too, he made her a star. Hollywood is lousy with beautiful women, they're a dime a dozen there. If one won't spread for a job, another will.
