via email, continuing a media campaign that also saw his defense attorney speak to the news network.
“The past two years have been grueling and have presented me with a great opportunity for self-reflection,” Weinstein wrote. “I realize now that I was consumed with my work, my company and my drive for success. This caused me to neglect my family, my relationships and to lash out at the people around me. I have been in rehab since October 2017, and have been involved in a 12-step program and meditation. I have learned to give up my need for control.
The upcoming trial centers on allegations that he raped a woman in a New York hotel room in 2013. A second woman contends Weinstein forced oral sex on her at his Manhattan apartment in 2006. Other women are expected to testify against him in an effort to prove a pattern of abuse.“While I do have many empathetic opinions regarding many people, I am following the advice of my lawyers on the eve of my trial to not offer any commentary on this,” he emailed.
Weinstein claimed that the media plays a large role in public perceptions on his case. “The public’s biggest misconceptions come from the assumptions that have been made through the help of media,” he wrote. “That is also all I can say on this for now.”
