In a gripping court testimony, Kaja Sokola, a 39-year-old accuser of Harvey Weinstein, recounted a horrific sexual assault that took place when she was only 16. During the emotional proceedings, she described screaming out of fear while Weinstein pressured her, referencing his connections to Hollywood A-listers like Penelope Cruz and Gwyneth Paltrow to coerce her compliance. Sokola's vivid memories include feelings of helplessness and manipulation, as she felt compelled to remain silent due to Weinstein's power in the industry. The proceedings highlight the psychological toll of such encounters and the pervasive influence of powerful figures in Hollywood.
"I raised my voice, screaming," Kaja Sokola said in Manhattan supreme court Thursday.
"It was the most horrifying thing I've ever experienced until that time," Sokola said, holding a tissue in her right hand to dab her eyes.
