Entertainment mogul Harvey Weinstein harassed and assaulted dozens of women over the course of 30 years, and a recently proposed legal settlement might let him get off easy.
After two years of legal back-and-forth, Weinstein and his bankrupt Hollywood studio have reached a tentative $25 million settlement with his accusers. The proposal, which has received preliminary approval from all of the major players, would not require Weinstein to admit wrongdoing or pay his victims out of pocket, according to the New York Times.
