TMZ is reporting that Harvey Weinstein has reached a tentative $25 million settlement with dozens of his alleged victims.
As part of the deal, he will not have to admit any wrongdoing or – GET THIS – have to pay anything to his accusers himself. Insurance companies repping The Weinstein Company will shell out the full amount.
Also: While the total payout is actually $47 million, a huge chunk covers legal costs. The 18 alleged victims are splitting a measly $6.2 million (with no individual getting more than $500k). There’s a separate chunk — $18.5 million — that’ll be set aside for those in a class-action case and future claimants.
Oh, and most importantly: The settlement means that all civil suits against Weinstein and The Weinstein Company will also get dismissed.
Justice served?
