The disgraced mogul turned himself in early Friday to face sex assault charges in connection with attacks on multiple women.
Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein turned himself in to New York authorities Friday to face rape and sex assault charges in connection with attacks on two women.
A horde of at least 100 media — some on ladders — watched the former Weinstein Company co-founder arrive with his lawyer at the NYPD's 1st Precinct in lower Manhattan to face charges that he preyed on Lucia Evans and at least one other accuser.
Evans told investigators that Weinstein forced her to perform oral sex on him in 2004 in his office, sources said.
The 66-year-old Weinstein, flanked by his lawyer and two detectives, emerged from a grey Toyota 4Runner around 7:25 a.m. to face a scrum of reporters and photographers.
He appeared calm as he made his way through the throng, which was kept behind NYPD barricades.

He was dressed in a navy blue suit with a light blue sweater over a white shirt and held two books — one titled "Something Wonderful" — and a journal.
Neither Weinstein nor his lawyer said anything as they entered the stationhouse.
The NYPD said in a statement issued at about 8:30 a.m. that he was charged with rape, criminal sex act, sex abuse and sexual misconduct involving the two victims.
"The NYPD thanks these brave survivors for their courage to come forward and seek justice," the statement said.

Stars accused of sexual harassment and assault
New Yorker writer Ronan Farrow said on CNN that it was an "incredible and unexpected moment. I am immensely grateful for what they have done."
Evans told The New Yorker she was an incoming college senior trying to break into the film 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 crotch.
"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 rape charges are related to allegations involving a second, unidentified woman who has not spoken publicly, sources said.

Weinstein flashed a broad smile as he was walked out of the 1st Precinct in handcuffs flanked by two detectives at 8:46 a.m. He answered no questions as he was placed in a black SUV and driven off to court escorted by a caravan of three detective cars.
Minutes later, Weinstein appeared at Manhattan Criminal Court to be arraigned.
He walked past a long line of media with his hands loosely cuffed behind his back.
Because the allegations involve the use of force, the statute of limitations does not apply.

The divorced dad is expected to submit fingerprints before he's arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court, where prosecutors will ask for $1 million bail and an electronic ankle monitor, sources said.
Weinstein's surrender marks the latest chapter in the stunning downfall of one of Hollywood's most powerful figures.
More than 80 women have accused Weinstein of sexual harassment, assault or rape, including A-list actresses Gwyneth Paltrow, Ashley Judd and Angelina Jolie.
The tide of allegations against the disgraced film producer inspired women across the country to come forward with similar stories of sexual abuse in a wave of stunning revelations known as the #MeToo movement.
Weinstein has denied having nonconsensual sex with any of his accusers.
Weinstein's arrest was the result of a joint investigation between the NYPD and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.

Tina is a fag
And I thought only trump could say the dumbest shit ever. Congrats.
He didn't drug these bitches, they wanted him to help with this career
Yeah.... sure.... women don’t sex up famous niggas to get ahead. You’re right.
And I thought only trump could say the dumbest shit ever. Congrats.
Now we see what's up

You must be young.
We STILL never saw evidence that Cosby was guilty. Cosby admitted to giving bitches pills in the 70s. None of those chicks can say Cosby forced himself on them and prove it. Back in the day, chicks did coke and wanted to come down, so they popped pills. They only looked into 3 cases and none of those chicks proved rape. Cosby was convicted on word-of-mouth and the metoo movement being weaponized.
Weinstein is a well-known sexual abuser. Still, his fat ass never went hunting for these broads. They came to him looking for something. If you know "Uncle Harvey" is a perv, don't go to Uncle Harvey's house. Where is the personal responsibility here? If they ran, it ain't like he could catch 'em.
They are not in the same class of offender.
I'm waiting on this shit right here........
How the hell do you force someone to give you a blowjob? Like Dave Chappelle said, if someone is peeing on you, you simply get out of the way. This is "regret rape". In other words, it was consensual, but for whatever reason years later, the ho is feeling some sort of way about it, so now it's magically "rape".
These heaux come back years later lying as though they crying while sucking dick. Knowing damn well they kept eye contact and swallowed. Oh and got the part. Anyway I'm glad to see that fat white sleazy son a bitch catching hell right now. I've been enjoying watching all of it like a dragged out episode of Special Victims Unit.
right, i could care less but after that cosby shit and they all thought lets stay silent cause he just a nigga, they all can burn now. should have deaded all this when they had a chance.
