Former Polish runway model Kaja Sokola filed a lawsuit accusing Harvey Weinstein of sexually assaulting her when she was 16 years old.
Weinstein is free on bail awaiting a trial set to begin next month after having pleaded not guilty to raping a woman in a New York hotel room in 2013 and performing a forcible sex act on a different woman in 2006. Weinstein has consistently denied all allegations that he had nonconsensual sex.
Instead, The Weinstein Co.'s insurance companies would be on the hook for $6.2 million that would go to 18 women who have sued Weinstein independently and $18.5 million more that would be set aside as a settlement fund. That fund would be available to all of the class members in the suit, even in cases in which the statute of limitations has expired.In her lawsuit, Sokola said she was introduced to Weinstein at an event involving her modeling agency.
"He would not let her leave until after he terrified and sexually abused her," the complaint states."This traumatic day has been etched in Sokola's mind every day thereafter, and it has caused her immense emotional pain and suffering, even seventeen years later and long after she gave up her dreams of acting or working in the entertainment industry."
