Rowena Chiu, Harvey Weinstein's former assistant: 'I thought Harvey would hire people to go around to my boyfriend’s apartment or my poor parents and there would be black vans sitting outside their home'

, a representative for the incarcerated Weinstein says, “Harvey had always respected Ms. Chiu and treated her as a close and trusted friend. He only has feelings of fondness for her, and ultimately sadness for how her memories of him appeared to have manifested to what we hear today. He always hopes for her best and still wishes her only joy and happiness.”

“He could sue me for every single interview I’ve ever done for breaking my NDA, but in practice, he’s probably not going to. He’s got bigger problems.”As allegation after allegation came pouring out in 2017, Chiu chose to remain anonymous. After all, she had already harbored her secret for two decades. She had no interest in becoming a public name, plus, she was bound to the non-disclosure agreement.

The agreements signed by Chiu and Perkins exemplify the abuse of power and the lengths that large corporations will go to, in order to protect individuals in positions of power, under the guise of legal protection. It wasn’t just the six women who took the stand, but obviously those six women paid a much bigger price. It took so long to get here. Hundreds, if not thousands, of people over the years had to devote so much time, energy and emotion just to go up against one man. That says a lot. When you look at the social phenomenon, it’s quite amazing that all of these different people came together to rally for one cause.

He’s got 111 women speaking out against him, he’s already done one criminal trial in New York and he’s got another upcoming criminal trial in L.A., so to be honest, he’s not going to waste his time or money suing me. I don’t have any money, so what’s the point of suing me? But legally, he’s within his rights to sue me and bring a case against me that says give back the settlement money. Every time I speak out, I run that risk.

Stuff like Harvey must go to sex therapy, so he has to admit that he has an addiction to sex. And then there was all the corporate stuff we tried to put in about how complaints were handled — we even went so far as to say that if there is another woman who brings an accusation forward [within two years of the signed NDA] and Harvey feels compelled to settle with her for $35,000 or up, he will automatically resign from Miramax and report himself to the Walt Disney Co.

We fought really hard to have a really simple clause that said Harvey must travel with one male assistant at any time.

Well said.

It’s always going to be like this as long as wannabe actors want fame n fortune and take their clothes off I don’t feel sorry for them they walked in they can walk out.......

RonanFarrow probably knows this

A tug boat uses rope to turn a ship round. So sling a rope round his neck and pull extremely hard... Would've still had the desired effect.

🤮Such a disgusting man!! He shouldn't be doing anyone, really. Shame, shame, shame!!! 😞

Such top-drawer people these Hollywood types...

Considering how much time Harvey Weinstein spent with Harvey Weinstein, it's no wonder he doesn't like Jews.

Is he a self hating Jew or was he just unwilling to disrespect them in particular

So?

Funny how Allen, Polanski and Spacey get to live normal lives
