'It’s time for the defendant’s reign of terror to end.'
“The lure was that Jane Doe #2 could pitch a script to the kingmaker in Hollywood… she thought her dreams were about to come true. And there’s nothing wrong with having dreams… that’s the magic of this city,” the prosecutor said. “The problem here in this case is when you have a dream, people will take advantage,” Martinez said, pointing at Weinstein in the courtroom, referring to him as “the monster at the end of the table.
“He doesn’t obey red lights. He continued to do what he wants until he reaches his goal — until he reaches ejaculation.” In the case of Jane Doe #3, Weinstein instantly mentioned a book deal when he met her, and before he assaulted her. The prosecutor said this is an example of Weinstein’s “tactics,” and that the book deal “was never actually going to happen. It wasn’t viable.”
“The defense will try to distract all of you from their client’s actions,” Martinez said, by trying to get the jury to believe it’s the women’s fault. But, she pointed out, the women were fearful that they had to stay in Weinstein’s good graces, given the power imbalance. “He was the entertainment industry,” Martinez said, adding that Siebel Newsom — and the other women — believed she had “to be on his good side” if she wanted to get anywhere in Hollywood.
