Jessica Mann testified in a Manhattan courtroom Friday that
Harvey Weinstein engaged in forced oral sex and raped her in early 2013 and
alleged that she was in a twisted relationship with him because of her sexual
inexperience.
As Mann tearily described alleged incidents, she also made
the bombshell claim that Weinstein doesn’t have testicles and appeared to have
a vagina, saying she thought he was “intersex” the first time she saw him
naked.
Weinstein faces charges in New York City for allegedly
raping Mann, and for an alleged sexual assault on former actress Mimi Haleyi.
Prosecutors have used Sopranos actress Annabella Sciorra’s allegation that
Weinstein raped her around late 1993 to bolster their claim that Weinstein has
a pattern of predatory behavior. Weinstein has maintained his innocence.
“He would talk very dirty to me about fantasies and things,
and compare me to the other things actresses that he said were doing kinky,
dirty things with him,” Mann testified. “He always wanted to film me. I never
gave him permission.”

“He would say, ‘Do you like my big, fat, Jewish dick?’” claimed Mann, 34.
“The first time I saw him fully naked,” she said, “I thought
he was deformed and intersex. He has an extreme scarring that I didn’t know,
maybe [he] was a burn victim …”
“He does not have testicles, and it appears that he has a
vagina,” she claimed, saying she had oral sex with Weinstein.
As Mann claimed that he had deformed genitals, Weinstein
dropped his head.
“He also peed on me once,” she also said of Weinstein, who
is 67.
Prosecutor Joan Illuzzi asked Mann to describe Weinstein’s
hygiene.
“It was very bad,” she said. “He smelled like shit — excuse
me, sorry, like poop. He just was dirty.”

| Jessica Mann broke down as she testified about an attack by Weinstein. As he was dragging me into the bedroom, I didn’t fall but I was having a lot of trouble keeping my balance, he was pulling me so fast.”“He threw me down on the edge of the bed, and he was demanding that I take off my clothes and I was begging him,” she said sobbing, her breath strained. “And I said, ‘No, please, no!”
