(CNN) The lead defense attorney in Harvey Weinstein's rape and sexual assault trial said in an interview that she has never been sexually assaulted "because I would never put myself in that position." In an interview Friday on The Daily podcast , Donna Rotunno, was asked whether she had ever been the victim of a sexual assault. "I have not because I would never put myself in that position," she said on the New York Times podcast. Donna Rotunno"Do you believe every woman who's been sexually assaulted somehow put herself in that position -- whether it was having drinks or agreeing to go to a hotel room?" asked New York Times reporter Megan Twohey, co-author of "She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement."
