Look at her hands when Weinstein is brought up. She's evidently uneasy speaking about him.
P.S. Gwyneth Paltrow comes across as such a sweetheart.
Is he going to get arrested for this, what is the procedure in the US?
He has to be arrested for a specific crime. For that to happen, probable cause has to be established.
So would the authorities act if an official complaint is made by one of the women on a his word against theirs basis?
Just seen James Corden's pretty rubbish jokes about HW really think it's unnecessary given how widespread this is becoming.
That said, I think Rose McGowan's reaction is quite frankly embarrassing. Going on about how CBS should donate or they're promoting a, "rape culture".
I understand rape is such a deplorable, horrendous, dignity-destroying crime that it can leave victims feeling such hatred and anger, but all of her responses on Twitter are so crass, so undignified that it could well result in public opinion turning on her.
They would absolutely investigate. They would interview witnesses, gather evidence, build a case, and place it before the DA. The DA decides whether to prosecute, based on the strength of the case.
Seeing this all happened a while ago, chances of trial happening are minute, unless there is a smoking gun (video evidence for example), or very strong circumstantial evidence.
I understand the feeling, basically we hit a stage of 'come on now, too much' even when we really shouldn't but like you said about rape, the feelings of hatred and anger are justified so she's entitled to this because it's utterly undignified.
At this point they'd have a lot of supporting witnesses to prove a pattern of behaviour.So would the authorities act if an official complaint is made by one of the women on a his word against theirs basis?

With the historical sex abuse cases in the UK recently they got convictions based on the consistency of testimony from different sources, pertaining to sexual habits and descriptions of genitalia etc, is that unlikely to happen over there?
Eva green has not come out as well.
Plus stories like this - https://www.thewrap.com/harvey-wein...en-corroborate-2004-new-york-times-reporting/
Things are going to get a lot worse.
How so?
Typo instead of 'now come out as well'?
Do you have any examples? Just curious to see if UK legal vehicles used for those cases have ant equivalents in the US.
The American legal system seems different though. I take it America wouldn’t extradite him to the UK if the police wanted to prosecute him for the alleged crimes committed here?
How so? Isn't a woman's testimony enough for a conviction or does it need physical evidence too? I'm aware of the statute of limitations

20 years ago maybe. She comes across as a lunatic these days.Look at her hands when Weinstein is brought up. She's evidently uneasy speaking about him.

Not if he denied it. It would be her word against his, which obv. is not enough.

It is the key evidence in most rape cases though. I mean physical evidence, such as sperm and physical tearing are only circumstancial. The only clear evidence is testimony in rape cases and how credible either witness is.
Now the only American cases I'm familiar with are Tyson and Stephen Avery (Making a Murderer). And Tyson's had vaginal tearing and sperm, alongside testimony. While Avery's only had a identity parade when he got wrongfully convicted.
Genuine question - is what he's done actually rape, in the eyes of the law?
Not that it changes what he's done, but it obviously changes if anything can be done.

Weinstein will have the best legal team money can buy. Getting a conviction will need a very strong case from the prosecution.
I am very pleased to read that Harvey Weinstein has been exposed and sacked before he had a chance to remake Ian Fleming’s Goldfinger. His casting of Goldfinger’s personal pilot Pussy Galore could have held up the production for months on end.
In what way?Eva green has not come out as well.
Like corrected already I meant she has also come out with accusation against Weinsten, as to how he only stopped touching her when she pushed him away.In what way?
I know it was a typo in the end but she is the lead actress in Polanski's next film. Obviously there should be huge sympathy for what happened to her but it pisses off me of that these people choose to work with him and should be condemned for it.In what way?
