The Harvey Weinstein Trial: Unfiltered

The big question at the end of today's trial was - Was the jury shown naked pictures of Harvey Weinstein and did the pictures confirm Jessica Mann's description of him being intersex and disfigured? That came at the end of eventful day where we heard from the third person in the Harvey Weinstein threesome and Jessica Mann who also took part.

Jessica took the stand again on Tuesday after her Monday testimony was cut short when the judge found her inconsolable from crying. Weinstein's defense completed the cross-examination of Mann which included more details about Weinstein and Mann's relationship. The defense aimed to paint Mann as a manipulative liar who used her relationship with Weinstein to further her acting career and gain access to exclusive Hollywood events. Weinstein invited Mann to Oscar parties and Mann regularly enjoyed the perks of her relationship with the movie producer.

Also testifying today was Italian actress Emanuela Postacchini who testified that Harvey Weinstein "manipulated" her and Jessica Mann into a failed threesome in Beverley Hills in 2013. Postracchini testified that the movie producer tried to orchestrate a threesome, instructing the women to engage with each other sexually. According to Postracchini, Mann instead broke down into tears and laid down on the floor in the fetal position.
