Harvey Weinstein’s Brother Caught Up In Sexual Harassment Scandal

Harvey Weinstein (at left) has seen his production empire wrecked over sexual harassment charges — and now his movie-mogul brother has been caught helping to cover up the disgusting antics blasted by Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie and more!

Bob Weinstein — who oversaw the making of the hit "Scream" franchise and other hits — originally insisted there was "no f--king way" that he was "aware that [Harvey] was the type of predator" that emerged in the shocking accusations. Bob even added that he thought any sex-crazed stories he'd heard about his brother were "consensual situations." But shocking new accusations have emerged in a bombshell report!

New Yorker reporter Ronan Farrow — who originally got Ashley Judd and other stars to expose Harvey Weinstein's brutal sexual assaults — now reports that Bob paid off several of Harvey's accusers from his own personal bank account. The payments were reportedly an attempt to hide the scandals from both Disney and the board of directors at Weinstein's own Miramax company.

The settlements included a big overseas payout to two women in London — including Harvey's former assistant Zelda Perkins — who were accusing Bob's Oscar-winning brother of sexual harassment and assault. "I only know what Harvey told me," Bob insisted.

"And basically," Bob continued, "what he said was he was fooling around with two women and they were asking for money...he asked me if I could write a check, and so I did, but there was nothing to indicate any kind of sexual harassment.”
