Harvey Weinstein was slapped with a civil lawsuit Monday charging him with sex trafficking tied to an alleged assault in Cannes, France. Aspiring actress Kadian Noble’s lawsuit claims Weinstein first “groomed” her for the alleged assault in London, when he told her that “he had a role in mind for her and that ‘it will be good for you. Weinstein pulled Kadian into the bathroom, where he forced himself on her, the lawsuit alleges. The lawsuit then describes the alleged assault, including Weinstein pulling down the actress’ shirt, “revealing her breasts,” while unbuckling his pants and belt. Kadian also is suing Weinstein’s brother, Bob, and their company The Weinstein Company, claiming that they were aware that Harvey had a reputation for forcing or coercing “aspiring young actresses” to engage in sexual activity.
