Harvey Weinstein faces new charges of sexual assault and rape, after three women on Friday filed a class action lawsuit against the disgraced former producer.
The lawsuit states that Weinstein isolated the women “in an attempt to engage in unwanted sexual conduct that took many forms: flashing, groping, fondling, harassing, battering, false imprisonment, sexual assault and attempted rape, and/or completed rape.”
The women said in the lawsuit that they were lured by Miramax or The Weinstein Company employees and isolated with Weinstein in his office and hotel rooms.

One of the women, Caitlin Dulany, said in the lawsuit that in 1996, Weinstein assaulted, threatened, and falsely imprisoned her in her apartment in New York City. She also accused Weinstein of sexually assaulting, battering, threatening, and falsely imprisoning her again, several months later, in his Miramax hotel suite at the Cannes Film Festival.
