Now it's official, Hollywood is ruled by rapists! Harvey Weinstein was arrested and officially charged with rape.

This is the first indictment after the charges against him filed seven months ago

Against film producer Harvey Weinstein, whom dozens of women charged with sexually abusing, an indictment was filed Friday in New York for rape and sexual abuse.Weinstein, 66, arrived at a police station in the south of Manhattan at around 7.30 am, not far from where he had an office for a time and from his home in Greenwich Village.

Several dozen cameras and journalists from the world's media were welcomed in front of the building, but did not give any statement. Shortly thereafter, the New York Police announced that it was charged with raping and sexually abusing two women, but did not provide other details.After the police processing, Weinstein was escorted by the police, around 9.15 (15.15), to the court, the office of the state prosecutor announced.

According to some media reports, Lucia Evans is accused of sexually abusing her, who once publicly testified that Weinstein forced her into oral sex in 2004.There is currently no information about the rape charge. After the indictment was issued, Weinstein was released with a $ 1 million bailout, an obligation to carry an electronic bracelet and passport passages, reports AFP.The conditions for his release were determined by a short hearing before the Manhattan judge, on the basis of agreements previously reached by the State Attorney Manhattan and his lawyer, Ben Brafman.

Reports of Weinstein's violence against women have triggered an avalanche of similar charges against other Hollywood stars, television journalists and other powerful people.Many of them were fired or resigned. The burden of the accusations triggered the MeToo movement, joined by women from all branches of industry who have experienced sexual harassment or embezzlement at work.
