Rose McGowan Addresses Harvey Weinstein's Impending Arrest

Rose McGowan is happy that justice is finally being served.

The 44-year-old actress – who has previously accused Harvey Weinstein of raping her – is responding after news broke on Thursday (May 24) that the 66-year-old disgraced producer will reportedly be surrendering to the police on sex crime charges.

“I, and so many of Harvey Weinstein’s survivors, had given up hope that our rapist would be held accountable by law. Twenty years ago, I swore that I would right this wrong. Today we are one step closer to justice,” Rose said via Variety.

Harvey is expected to surrender himself to police on Friday, May 25 in New York City in connection with Lucia Evans‘ sexual assault case when he allegedly forced her to perform oral sex on him during an audition back in 2004.

“We were young women who were assaulted by Weinstein and later terrorised by his vast network of complicity,” Rose continued. “I stand with my fellow survivors. May this give hope to all victims and survivors everywhere that are telling their truths.”
