Harvey Weinstein's longtime limo driver was called to the witness stand in the producer's L.A. criminal case on Wednesday.
, Weinstein forced the actress, identified only as Jane Doe. No. 1 in court filings, to participate in oral sex against her will on Feb. 18, 2013. Weinstein then proceeded to rape the woman inside her hotel room using “fear of immediate and unlawful bodily injury,” prosecutors allege.Los Angeles Times
In his testimony Wednesday, Baroth said he picked Weinstein up from a private aviation company at the Van Nuys airport around 5 p.m. on Feb. 17, 2013, acted as his on-call driver for 7.5 hours, and then dropped him off at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills. He said he invoiced Weinstein for an 8.5-hour “engagement” because he always billed an extra 30 minutes of commute time on either end of a shift. That 30 minutes could prove critical.
Baroth’s testimony could be important because he confirmed that he ferried Weinstein to the L.A.-Italia Film Fest on Feb. 17, 2013, and worked as his driver around the times of two other alleged sex assaults on Feb. 19, 2013, and May 11, 2010.
