The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced Friday that Harvey Weinstein now faces six additional forcible sexual assault counts that involve two victims, whose incidents allegedly occurred over a decade ago.

Now, as a result of the new charges, Weinstein faces a total of four counts each of forcible rape and forcible oral copulation, two counts of sexual battery by restraint, and one count of sexual penetration by use of force. These crimes involve five victims between the time of 2004-2013.

In a statement, District Attorney Jackie Lacey said, “I am thankful to the first women who reported these crimes and whose courage have given strength to others to come forward.” She continued, “the willingness of these latest victims to testify against a powerful man gives us the additional evidence we need to build a compelling criminal case.”
