Hollywood actor, Terry Crews has now formally filed a police report alleging sexual harrassment against Hollywood studio executive, Adam Venit.
During the eye of the Harvey Weinstein accusations revelations, Crews had revealed he was groped by an exec at a Hollywood party in the presence of his wife.
In a number of tweets, Terry shared his story where he said the following: “My wife and I were at a Hollywood function last year and a high level Hollywood executive came over 2 me and groped my privates. Jumping back, I said, ‘What are you doing?!’ My wife saw everything and we looked at him like he was crazy. He just grinned like a jerk.”
Adam is reportedly on a leave of absence as the entertainment company, that Terry is a client of, investigates the case further.
TMZ recently caught up with Terry walking outside of LAPD’s Hollywood Division. The actor tells the publication that he plans on filing not only a lawsuit but a criminal charge, for an undecided amount. When asked why he decided to file the police report, Terry replies, “Because you know, people have to held accountable.”
I understand and empathize with those who have remained silent. But Harvey Weinstein is not the only perpetrator. (14/cont.)
