Rose Mcgowan sues Harvey Weinstein for racketeering

LOS ANGELES—US actress Rose Mcgowan filed a federal lawsuit on Wednesday alleging that Harvey Weinstein and his former attorneys David Boies and Lisa Bloom engaged in racketeering to silence her and derail her career before she accused him of rape. The lawsuit alleged that the defendants conspired to defraud, smear and marginalize Mcgowan as she was preparing to name Weinstein during the runup to the explosion of the #Metoo movement late in 2017.
