Rose McGowan to Harvey Weinstein: ‘We got you’

In addition to McGowan, other Hollywood actresses who have accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct include Ashley Judd, Uma Thurman, Salma Hayek, Lupita Nyong’o and Angelina Jolie. He also has been accused by employees of Miramax, the movie studio he founded with his brother, Bob, and other women, including TV journalist Lauren Sivan.

“This is a big strike into the heart of abuse of power, and it shows people worldwide, which is what I was hoping the whole time, that this cannot and will not stand,” said McGowan, who blamed the Hollywood structure for allowing Weinstein’s allegedly well-known cycle of abuse to continue for decades.

“The system was created by men like him and had the accomplices to help men like him,” she said.

People around Weinstein “lay wreaths at his feet, even though they knew” about his behavior toward women, she added. “Today is a good day.”
