Detective Says
NYPD Has ‘Enough to Make Arrest’ after HBO Star Accuses Harvey Weinstein of
Rape
by Daniel Nussbaum 3 Nov 2017
A New York Police Department detective has
revealed that city police have collected enough evidence to arrest Harvey Weinstein after
the fallen movie mogul was accused of rape by another actress this week.
Actress Paz de la Huerta, who starred in the hit HBO
series Boardwalk
Empire, alleged that Weinstein raped her twice at her New York City apartment in 2010.
According
to Vanity Fair, New York District Attorney Maxine B.
Rosenthal is considering bringing charges against Weinstein for the alleged
rapes. Weinstein has been accused of rape by at least ten women, and has
been accused of sexually assaulting or harassing dozens more women over a
decades-long career as one of Hollywood’s most powerful players.
But de la Huerta’s case may be the most likely to
trigger a prosecution, because it occurred after 2006, when New York
eliminated its statute of limitations for first-degree rape.
And now, at least one NYPD detective says Weinstein
could be arrested over the latest rape claims.
“I believe based on my interviews with Paz that from the
NYPD standpoint we have enough to make an arrest,” NYPD detective Nicholas
DiGaudio told Vanity Fair.

De la Huerta,
33, detailed the alleged incidents in an interview with the magazine, saying
the first happened after Weinstein offered to give the actress a ride back to
her apartment in Tribeca in November of 2010. The actress said Weinstein
demanded to be let into her apartment for a drink.
“Immediately
when we got inside the house, he started to kiss me and I kind of brushed [him]
away,” de la Huerta told VF. “Then he pushed me onto the bed and his
pants were down and he lifted up my skirt. I felt afraid. . . . It wasn’t
consensual . . . It happened very quickly. . . . He stuck himself inside me. .
. . When he was done he said he’d be calling me. I kind of just laid on the bed
in shock.”
The actress said
Weinstein showed up at her apartment the following month and allegedly raped
her again. De la Huerta said that afterward,
Weinstein
promised he’d get her a role in a play. She never heard from him again.
The actress
said that fear had prevented her from speaking about the allegations
publicly, though she did tell her therapist what happened. De la Huerta shared
a letter written by her therapist about what she remembers being told with the New York
District Attorney’s Office.
De la Huerta is
one of several actresses who claim to have been raped by Weinstein over a
period of years, including actresses Asia Argento, Rose McGowan, and Natassia
Malthe.
Police in London and Los Angeles are also reportedly investigating specific claims
made against the producer.
Weinstein,
through a spokesperson, has denied all claims on nonconsensual sex. He was last
reported to be in Arizona, where he was seeking treatment at a rehabilitation
facility.
