Statement from Safe Horizon CEO Liz Roberts on appeals court decision to overturn Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction.
April 25, 2024
“We are shocked and disappointed by the decision, which communicates profound disrespect of Harvey Weinstein survivors, who fought tirelessly for justice. The pervasive pattern of his predatory behavior was exactly the reason multiple survivors were heard during the trial. This is why we fiercely advocate for legislation such as the Adult Survivors Act (ASA), as well as pending legislation to make the ASA permanent, to make sure survivor voices are heard, especially when individuals in powerful positions seek to silence them. Our fight continues and we will not give up.”
