Six women say Harvey Weinstein cover-up was racketeering in new lawsuit
NBC "News" ^ | December 6, 2017 | by Associated Press

Posted on 12/06/2017 11:39:01 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Six women filed a lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein on Wednesday, claiming that the movie mogul's actions to cover up assaults amounted to civil racketeering.

The lawsuit was filed at a federal court in New York seeking to represent a class of "dozens, if not hundreds" of women who say they were assaulted by Weinstein.

The lawsuit claims that a coalition of companies and people became part of the growing "Weinstein Sexual Enterprise" and that they worked with Weinstein to conceal his widespread sexual harassment and assaults.

"The Weinstein Sexual Enterprise had many participants, grew over time as the obfuscation of Weinstein's conduct became more difficult to conceal," the suit said.

According to the lawsuit, actresses and other women in the film industry were lured to industry events, hotel rooms, Weinstein's home, office meetings or auditions under the pretense that they were to discuss a project.

The Left gets hoisted on its own petard by the victims they always said they had so much regard for

Has their depravity and greed no limits?

Answer: Yes, when the participant is a republican.

Peter Strzok will prove to be the stain on Bob Mueller's blue suit. Just an aside.

I think the companies involved included should include NBC - they initially refused to broadcast Ronan Farrows report on Weinstein.

Good news for our side and more bad news for the perverted liberals in Follywood, DC and NYC.

Racketeering is a very serious charge.

Just curious, It never in my wildest dreams occurred to me that just whipping it out, and masturbating in to a potted plant, in front of a girl I might be sexually attracted to would yield a positive result.

Am I alone?? Or does this happen a lot??

All this “sudden masturbation in front of a woman” stuff just amazes me. The men in question are mentally disturbed beasts.

Oprah sacrificing the young woman to the demented beast..... it seems like it should have been some D-level low budget horror flick.

a proper and legitimate use of the RICO statute. I think the various State AGs should file RICO charges as well. (Most every state has it’s own RICO statute, in addition to the Federal one.)
I would guess that would keep Weinstein’s lawyers very billable for a long time.

Excellent lawsuit—this is the key to bringing down dirtbags like the Clintons and their phony foundation.

Doesn’t that make Oprah an accomplice of Weinstein?
