The whole #MeToo movement started in Hollywood in 2017 when Harvey Weinstein was called out. Since then, a lot of women came forward and opened up and called out their sexual predators. Former actress Jessica Mann has been identified as the third woman who has accused disgraced Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault in his ongoing New York trial.
She has joined production assistant Mimi Haley and former “The Sopranos” actress Annabella Sciorra, who have both alleged assault against Weinstein, reports acesehowbiz.com.
Mann was not named in court proceedings and documents, but her identity became known in Assistant District Attorney Meghan Hast’s opening statement in Manhattan Supreme Court on Wednesday, according to the New York Post.
