And now what everyone was probably thinking would happen has now happened – Weinstein is being accused of rape by three different women:
THE HILL – Three women have reportedly accused Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein of raping them.
The New Yorker reported Tuesday that actress Asia Argento and former aspiring actress Lucia Evans said Weinstein had raped them.
Four women told the publication they had experienced unwanted touching.
The New Yorker reported that 13 women had said that they had been sexually harassed or assaulted by Weinstein between the 1990s and 2015.
According to the publication, 16 former and current executives and assistants at Weinstein’s companies said they had seen or known about reports of unwanted sexual advances.
Democratic lawmakers have quickly distanced themselves from Weinstein, a major Democratic donor, after the Times report.
After what we’ve heard already, I don’t think anyone will have problems believing that Weinstein is capable of such things.
Of course he’s innocent until proven guilty, but you know the old saying – Where there’s smoke…

Holy crap! This isn’t just smoke from a fire, this is more like that big puffy cloud of smoke that rises out of a nuclear explosion.
