The New York police department is ready to make an arrest in the sexual assault case against Harvey Weinstein.

New York City’s chief of detectives, Robert Boyce, said on 7 March that police have gathered considerable evidence in the investigation, but it is up to the district attorney to decide whether, and when, the disgraced film producer gets indicted.

“It’s his case right now,” Boyce said of Manhattan district attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr. “I would ask you to ask him.”

However, the Daily Beast, quoted a police official with direct knowledge of the case as saying: “We’re ready to go with an arrest.”

1. I Believe If Vance Takes A Pass On This

this will be his last term. From Strauss-Kahn to the Trump he has let people of influence escape justice. This has become a much talked about aspect of his office. He ran unopposed last time so it's hard to find how many people actually voted for him.

2. Harvey should flip on the rest of them..like Trump, Pete Thiel, Bannon & every

..dirty mobster that used Hollywood as their global productions laundromat.

Trump, Theil, Bannon & more have been attracted to Hollywood for reasons more than a glam movie career.
Its the money laundering.
There's an article I cannot locate just yet.
It talks about Bannon, Theil, Trump & more current players & how Hollywood laundering of money is easy & lucrative in the movie business.
Trying to find it...

From 2006:

SNIP
"The undercover agents said De Basseville told them that movies could be used to launder the money.

"He stated that the dirty money goes into the movie project and comes back clean," wrote drug enforcement Special Agent James Williamson in a report contained in the court filing.

The agents met with De Basseville and several of his associates, including those charged, in Los Angeles, Miami, Virginia, Amsterdam and Geneva.

Authorities alleged that the men also promised the undercover agents that they could obtain thousands of weapons, including AK47 rifles, from Russia.
