Judge Was Prejudiced : Harvey Weinstein s Rape Conviction Overturned By New York Court menafn.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from menafn.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
Harvey Weinstein s former assistant Zelda Perkins has claimed her lack of ambition in the film industry and a mixture of humour and aggression protected her from ending up like the predator s other victims.
Ms Perkins worked for the disgraced movie mogul at his London office in her early twenties. She signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) in 1998 after claiming the producer sexually harassed her and tried to rape one of her colleagues, Rowena Chiu, in Italy.
Ms Perkins said she naively thought that reporting his alleged abuse to the firm s family-friendly parent company Disney would result in his dismissal, but instead was warned against speaking out.
