Paz de la Huerta Sues Harvey Weinstein Over Alleged Sexual Assaults

A lawyer representing actress Paz de la Huerta sued Harvey Weinstein on Monday in a California court, accusing him of assault and sexual battery in two alleged separate attacks in 2010. De la Huerta was interviewed by the NYPD last year, but she was not one of the three women Manhattan prosecutors charged Weinstein with sexually assaulting. Weinstein’s attorney, Benjamin Brafman, dismissed de la Huerta’s allegations, telling The Daily Beast they were the product of an “unstable personality with a vivid imagination.” Brafman claims Manhattan prosecutors rejected her as a complainant.
