The deformed genetalia of Harvey Weinstein will be laid bare for all to discuss in detail during his sex crimes trial.
Deputy District Attorney Paul Thompson said, “The disgraced Weinstein’s accusers will take to the stand and describe “unique things about his body”, including his testicles, as they recall how he sexually assaulted each of them.”
“What I’m referring to is the result of a surgery that the defendant had in 1999,” Thompson told the jury as a 70-year-old Weinstein shook his head. “Because of an infection, his testicles were actually taken from his scrotum and put into his inner thighs.”
“None of the Jane Does will describe his anatomy perfectly, but most of them will be able to describe these abnormalities that they observed during the assaults,” Thompson added. “The surgery caused pretty noticeable scarring, which will be visible in photos shown in court as the trial unfolds.”
Weinstein, who is already serving a 23-year sentence for rape and sexual assault in New York, is now on trial for supposedly sexually assaulting four women in Los Angeles between 2004 and 2013.
“Each of these women came forward independently of each other and they will tell you that the defendant assaulted them,” Thompson said. “After the defendant assaulted the women, they felt emotionally devastated. They feared that he could destroy their careers if they reported what he had done to them.”
Thompson also played a video slideshow, which flashed up photos of his accusers with quotes from prior testimonials that were read out to the jury.
Testimonies such as, “I’m shaking and kind of being dragged into the bedroom” and “he put his penis in me but he wasn’t erect.”
Other descriptions included; “He undressed me and I was fondling my breasts and then he came on my face” and “I was shocked. I was terrified. I kept saying, ‘No! No!”
Weinstein’s four accusers to testify in the case are expected to be identified only as Jane Does, however, California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, is among the accusers and has previously been identified as Jane Doe 4.
“Seventeen years ago, when she met the defendant in 2005, she was a powerless actor trying to make her way in Hollywood,” Thompson said, without specifically naming Newsom.
Weinstein raped her in a West Hollywood hotel room after luring her there under the guise of a business meeting.
Weinstein, who was dressed in a black suit, white button-down shirt and blue tie, did not react and stared blankly at the jury as the prosecutor detailed some of the allegations leveled against him.
Four other women, separate to the Jane Doe accusers, will also testify at trial to verify that Weinstein sexually assaulted them.
One of the original women involved in the trial, appears to have dropped out, but Thompson remained tight-tipped when asked if she would still testify.
“While we have no comment at this time, our office is tirelessly ensuring all of the victims in this case receive justice,” officials with the DA’s said.
In his opening statements, Weinstein’s lawyer Mark Werksman told how before the MeToo movement it was commonplace in Hollywood for women to trade sex for career advancement.
Workman said, “Hollywood was an entirely different place. In Hollywood, sex was a commodity. That’s the way things were done.”
Werksman even raised a slight chuckle from his client as he told the jury, “Look at him! He’s not Brad Pitt or George Clooney.”
Workman also criticized Siebel Newsom by saying, “Today she is the wife of Gov.Newsom. She’s the First Partner of California. She’s made herself a prominent victim in the MeToo movement, otherwise she’d be just another bimbo who slept with Harvey Weinstein to get ahead in Hollywood.”
The former movie mogul has denied any non-consensual sex and has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
I Used to live in Hollywood and it was definitely true that sex was a commodity. Never before or since have I been approached to have sex for money or jobs like I was back then. It was a near daily occurrence. If you were a pretty girl you were fair game and it was assumed that you were for sale. I’m going to plea the 5th on whether or not I ever accepted the offers though. 🤣😬😂
You just admitted that you did whore around. Did you even have a job or did you just give jobs.
too many typos to take this seriously.
Women get raped just for being vulnerable and ignorant about men. We should still have guardians who go with us on dates, that would have protected me and most women. Men assume it is okay because you are willing to go out with them and they spend some money on you.
