, 30, were the so-called"Molineux witnesses," whose accusations were either too old or out of jurisdiction to prosecute but were intended to help prosecutors prove that Weinstein was a serial predator with a recognizable pattern.

“Weinstein may have been able to avoid testifying in the criminal trial, but he will not be afforded that right in his civil trials," said Douglas Wigdor, an attorney for civil plaintiffs who have rejected the proposed settlement."I relish the day when I get to cross-examine him and ask him to answer for the wrongs he has committed against so many women.”and sexually assaulting another in separate incidents over two days in 2013.

The New York trial considered historic because it's the first major celebrity sex-crime trial of the #MeToo era. It culminated more than two years of world-wide condemnation of Weinstein and scores of other powerful men in multiple industries for an array of alleged crimes and misconduct. Weinstein's prosecution by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office of Cyrus Vance Jr., was no accident.
