Alyssa Milano wish­es Wein­stein dies ‘alone and unloved’

Activist and actress Alyssa Milano expressed her hope that dis­graced Hol­ly­wood exec­u­tive Har­vey Wein­stein face con­se­quences beyond a new con­vic­tion for sex­u­al assault.
Milano wrote an opin­ion edi­to­r­i­al that was pub­lished by the Dai­ly Beast days after Weinstein’s pre­vi­ous con­vic­tion was over­turned in New York. His Cal­i­for­nia con­vic­tion stands, but he has been released to Belle­vue Hos­pi­tal in New York to under­go med­ical test­ing.
“​Two of rapist Har­vey Weinstein’s con­vic­tions have been over­turned, and in New York he has been grant­ed a new tri­al,” Milano wrote. “And while it’s impor­tant to note that the rapist’s con­vic­tion in Cal­i­for­nia stands, and that the rapist is old, weak, and some­time soon he will die alone and unloved in a prison cell in one state or anoth­er, this injus­tice is just anoth­er exam­ple of how all of our Amer­i­can insti­tu­tions are built to demean and deval­ue women — to them, our bod­ies are com­modi­ties to be used, and that will be their down­fall.”
