about her psychiatric and emotional history, eliciting responses indicating that Mann had been diagnosed with panic disorder and disassociation, had previously engaged in self-injury and suicidal ideation, and was tested, but did not complete, an examination for borderline personality disorder.
Weinstein has maintained that all sexual encounters with all of his accusers have been consensual. If convicted, he faces life in prison. A much more explicit email exchange between Mann and a friend was presented into evidence today, in which Mann wrote to her friend what she’d like to say to her then-boyfriend Eddie: “I’m blowing a super-rich Hollywood producer who could ruin you.” Earlier today, an email exchange between Mann and Eddie was read into evidence in which Eddie seemingly blamed a “vindictive” Weinstein for getting him fired from a job.
