Harvey Weinstein raped me, ‘Sopranos’ actress Annabella Sciorra tells court

Weinstein has pleaded not guilty to sexually assaulting former production assistant Mimi Haleyi and raping actress Jessica Mann

– “The Sopranos” actress Annabella Sciorra’s voice cracked as she told a court Thursday that being raped by Harvey Weinstein left her feeling like she was having “a seizure” and caused her to self-harm.

In emotional testimony at Weinstein’s trial, Sciorra described how he barged into her New York apartment late at night in the early 1990s and attacked her while she was wearing a nightgown. “It was just so disgusting that my body started to shake in a way that was very unusual. I didn’t really even know what was happening,” the 59-year-old said.

Sciorra faced the jury as she held her hands above her head and clasped her wrists to demonstrate how Harvey Weinstein, then three times her weight, held her down on her bed and sexually assaulted her. “He got on top of me and he raped me,” she said, under questioning by lead prosecutor Joan Illuzzi-Orbon. “He put his penis inside of my vagina and he raped me,” Sciorra repeated.

Weinstein, 67, avoided eye contact and gestured towards one of his lawyers as Sciorra told the New York state court that the former film producer then performed oral sex on her. “I didn’t have very much fight left inside me at this point. My body just shut down,” said Sciorra, wearing a navy blue dress with long sleeves.
