A dancer in a film produced by Harvey Weinstein has testified that she was “freaked out” after meeting the movie mogul on set in Puerto Rico.

The woman told a Los Angeles court that the presence and reassurance of Weinstein’s assistant convinced her it was fine to go with him to his hotel, where she was later sexually assaulted.
