Harvey Weinstein's assets frozen by ex-wives
ABC 7 Chicago ^ | 7/10/20 | Chris Francescani

Harvey Weinstein's two ex-wives went to court in April and successfully convinced judges to freeze nearly $6 million of his assets, according to court records reviewed by ABC News this week and three sources close to the disgraced Hollywood producer.

The rest of his estate is tied up in bankruptcy and other civil proceedings, multiple sources familiar with the situation confirmed to ABC News.

Sources close to Weinstein claimed that the asset freeze has complicated his efforts to appeal his New York conviction and mount a strong defense ahead of his L.A. trial.

"He doesn't have the money to file an appeal," a source told ABC News earlier this month. "He can't spend anything without his ex-wives' approval."

**SNIP**

In March, law enforcement sources told ABC News and other news outlets that Weinstein contracted the coronavirus shortly after being transferred to the Wende Correctional Facility in Alden, N.Y., where he is serving a 23-year sentence as he awaits extradition to Los Angeles. If convicted at that trial on all counts, he could face an additional 29 years in a California prison.

A Freeper friend and I have long joked that letting old girlfriends get together is like “crossing the streams” in Ghostbusters I. It’s just something that’s too dangerous to casually let happen.

Here, it’s not ex-girlfriends, it’s ex-wives, armed with lawyers and court decrees. Serious financial trouble for Harv.

No shortage of women who were happy to rent themselves out just to get a chance at a part in a movie. Most of them knew the "terms" going in.

His ‘victims’ were not victims. They were quid pro quo arrangements and they wanted to now portray themselves as victims after their lengthy careers were dying down and the money train was in the station.

For Weinstein’s ex wives, me too means they are entitled to share in all his assets. By the time they are done with him, he will be broke and depressed and some bubba’s metoo.

I’m no fan of Weinstein, but for the life of me I can’t figure out why an ex-wife should be able to come out of the woodwork and make a claim on his assets. EX should mean EX.
