NY DAILY NEWS – Harvey Weinstein is expected to surrender to authorities Friday to face sex assault charges in connection with an attack on a student actress, the Daily News has learned.

The fallen Hollywood honcho is expected to be charged with preying on Lucia Evans who told investigators that Weinstein forced her to perform oral sex on him in 2004, sources said.

It was not immediately clear if Weinstein will be hit with additional charges related to other victims.

His attorney Benjamin Brafman declined to comment Thursday.

Evans told The New Yorker she was an incoming college senior trying to break into the business when she met Weinstein at a nightclub.

The movie mogul invited her to the Miramax office. Soon after she arrived for the daytime meeting, Evans said, Weinstein pulled her head down to his crouch.

“I said, over and over, ‘I don’t want to do this, stop, don’t,’ ” she told the magazine. “I tried to get away, but maybe I didn’t try hard enough. I didn’t want to kick him or fight him.”

Evans said the hulking Weinstein ultimately “overpowered” her.

“I just sort of gave up,” she said.

The probe was handled by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and NYPD, sources said.

Because of the nature of the allegations, the statute of limitations does not apply.

A special grand jury was also being presented with evidence related to possible financial fraud against Weinstein, but it was not immediately clear if the charges expected Friday include money mishandling allegations.

Wow. I’m surprised it’s taken this long, but I’m glad that he’s finally gonna get what’s coming to him.
