Weinstein rape trial winds down with more defense witnesses A woman whose name came up in testimony from an accuser last week at Harvey Weinstein's rape trial is expected to offer her own version of the episode for the defenseNEW YORK -- Lauren Marie Young says that after Harvey Weinstein groped her in a Beverly Hills hotel room bathroom in 2013, there was another woman there who did nothing to stop it. Young shot Salinas “an evil look, and I left as quick as I could without saying anything,” Young told the jury. Salinas, now 38, is expected to offer her own version Monday as the latest defense witness in the fourth week of a trial that could see closing arguments by the end of the week. The defense witnesses follow more than two weeks of prosecution testimony, including the accounts of six women who say the once-powerful Hollywood boss subjected them to vile sexual behavior.
