After almost four weeks of evidence from 44 witnesses, prosecutors in Los Angeles have rested their case in the trial against Harvey Weinstein - who is accused of raping two women and sexually assaulting two others
.
Initially facing 11 charges, Weinstein is now facing seven - and has pleaded not guilty to all, with his solicitors saying many of the encounters were consensual - after four were dropped when it emerged that an accuser known as Jane Doe #5 would not be appearing to testify. She said by the time Weinstein took her into the bathroom to allegedly rape her, she had stopped physically resisting, though still objected verbally."I would just freeze, like my body wouldn't listen."Just one woman who gave evidence during the New York trial has testified in LA. The model, who was aspiring to be a screenwriter, had set up a meeting with Weinstein about a script she was working on in 2013, the court heard.
