Disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein has been charged with six more counts of forcible sexual assault in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles District Attorney said on Friday.

The charges involve two victims and stem from incidents that occurred more than a decade ago in an unnamed Beverly Hills hotel, District Attorney Jackie Lacey said in a statement.

'I am thankful to the first women who reported these crimes and whose courage have given strength to others to come forward,' Lacey said in a statement.

I will never understand How anyone could force themselves on another person in a sexual manner

No matter how rich or how powerful or how self interested one was

I do understand the incredible beauty of the female form and how tempting she can be in the role of the seductress , but that is not what I’m talking about here

Just the concept alone of trying to have intimate relations , even in a marriage for example , with the other partner not wanting it is completely foreign to me

They got proof? Witnesses? Corroborating evidence? Did they tell anyone at the time?
Even the people we despise get the full benefit of the law.

Lessee....there was the Vice-President of my union who reached up under my skirt while I was helping to collate union newsletters.

Then there was my direct supervisor who did the same thing, in the shop office when I was in quality control.

And then there was, this is really awful, but my very own father-in-law, who again did the same thing after dropping me off at my house while husband was at work.

But you’re right....I slapped them all and shouted and the stopped.

The bigger problem is telling on these usually powerful men who do this sort of stuff.

Not sure how it is nowadays but men with some kind of power get some idea that they have the right to invade a woman’s body how they see fit.

Again, one can make a scene and usually it will stop.

Of all the scumbags out there many of whom are liberal Democrats, don’t you wonder given how much money Harvey Weinstein has contributed to the Clintons and Democrats in general why he was allowed to be thrown under the bus...

Most of the time they cover, deflect and smear the accusers and the entire thing goes away...not this time, he was nailed to the wall, why given all the others who have done the same thing or worse...

Bill Clinton is the obvious example and all the names in Jeffrey Epsteins flight logs, etc...

He grew up near me.

I was amazed to find out he was the same “Harvey” from “Harvey and Corky Productions” here in Western New York (Buffalo)

He’s back. Just down the road a bit at Wende prison (Or was he sent to Attica? -also just down the road about 25 miles)

A man who forces himself on a woman should have his giblets removed.

That being said what actual evidence is there that this guys raped the women he is being accused of raping?

Well then he’d definitely be of no harm because according to the testimony from his last trial, there ain’t no turkey neck.
