Arizona offers a haven? What you talking about? Weinstein is free to travel anywhere he wants in the United States. No US Senator or Governor can prevent that even if they hate Weinstein. There's a couple investigations going on, but Weinstein is not charged with anything. What would you have John McCain do about that?

Weinstein isn't charged with anything? Could have fooled me. And travel restrictions can be issued with an indictment post arraignment. Maybe you should spend more time eating dirt than posting here. I think you are imminently more qualified to do that. Have a sack of downvoats.

Hi,

This is not a criminal case. There is no arraignment.

Do you understand that this a Civil Rights Lawsuit against the Weinstein Company? And Harvey and his brothers as executives of the company? This is a civil suit, not a criminal suit, so travel restrictions do not apply.

Here's the prses release. Indictment is never mentioned. Charges is never mentioned. Harvey Weinstein's travel can not be restricted by the AG, because he has not criminal charges against him.

A.G. Schneiderman Files Civil Rights Lawsuit Against The Weinstein Companies, Harvey Weinstein, And Robert Weinstein.

New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman today filed suit against The Weinstein Company (“TWC”), Harvey Weinstein, and Robert Weinstein for egregious violations of New York’s civil rights, human rights, and business laws. The suit, filed today in New York County Supreme Court, includes new and extensive allegations about longtime company CEO Harvey Weinstein’s (“HW”) vicious and exploitative mistreatment of company employees. Today’s suit includes numerous employee-victim accounts of sexual harassment, intimidation, and other misconduct.

According to the Attorney General’s (“OAG”) lawsuit, despite many complaints to TWC’s human resources department and widespread knowledge across the company’s leadership of HW’s persistent misconduct, TWC executives and the Board repeatedly failed to take meaningful steps to protect company employees or curb HW’s misconduct.

“As alleged in our complaint, The Weinstein Company repeatedly broke New York law by failing to protect its employees from pervasive sexual harassment, intimidation, and discrimination,” said Attorney General Schneiderman. “Any sale of The Weinstein Company must ensure that victims will be compensated, employees will be protected going forward, and that neither perpetrators nor enablers will be unjustly enriched. Every New Yorker has a right to a workplace free of sexual harassment, intimidation, and fear.”

Today’s lawsuit is the result of an ongoing four month investigation by the Office of the Attorney General (“OAG”). The investigation included interviews with multiple company employees, executives, and survivors of Harvey Weinstein’s sexual misconduct. The investigation also included an exhaustive review of company records and emails.
