Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was found guilty Monday of rape and sexual assault in a Manhattan court. Jurors stopped short of convicting Weinstein on the more serious charges of being a sexual predator.
Although he is.
More than 90 women have accused Weinstein of rape and related offenses over the past 30 years. Weinstein faces five to 29 years for the two felonies, as well as other charges in California.
As a successful producer — “Shakespeare in Love,” “Good Will Hunting,” “Pulp Fiction,” — Weinstein, age 67, used sexual violence as a way to control the futures of young proteges. Keep quiet and you get the role. And yes, that’s sick.
