YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHarvey Weinstein’s retrial on rape and sexual assault charges got underway on April 23, as a prosecutor and a defense lawyer offered starkly contrasting explanations for the disgraced movie mogul's encounters with women who hoped to make it big in Hollywood.
Prosecutors have portrayed Weinstein as a serial predator who promised career advancement to women, only to then coax them into hotel rooms and private apartments where he overpowered and attacked them.
Weinstein's lawyer Arthur Aidala rejected that characterization, saying the Oscar-winning producer had "mutually beneficial" relationships with his accusers, who ended up with auditions and other show business opportunities.
Lindsay Goldbrum, the lawyer of Kaja Sokola, who claims Weinstein assaulted her when she was a 16-year-old aspiring actress, accused the defense of "victim blaming."
