I came here to see how people were fairing with the virus news and decided to open this thread. Bad idea. I forgot my protective gear.
So I'm outta this area with one last post...lol.
In conclusion, gentlemen of the jury, I'm not sure how anyone could interpret this to be consensual.
Testimony from Anabella Sciorra

In emotional and at times harrowing testimony, the Brooklyn-born “Sopranos” actress told the court that Weinstein forced his way into her Manhattan apartment when she was a rising star more than two decades ago and then forced himself on her — crassly congratulating himself for pulling out before his orgasm with the boast, “I have perfect timing.”
Weinstein grabbed Sciorra around her collar above her chest, the actor testified, and he shoved her onto the bed. She said she was wearing a nightgown and did not have underwear on, since prior to his unexpected arrival, she had gotten ready to go to bed in the comfort of her own home. “I was trying to get him off of me, I was punching him, I was kicking him,” she said. “I was just trying to get him away from me…He put my hands over my head to put them back and he got on top of me and he raped me.”
And when she privately confronted Weinstein about the alleged assault at a public event about a month later, Sciorra said, the Hollywood heavyweight callously responded, “That’s what all the nice Catholic girls say.”
“And then he leaned into me and warned, ‘This remains between you and I,’ ” she testified. “It was very menacing. His eyes were black and I thought he was going to hit me right there.”
