Actress and filmmaker Asia Argento has found herself on the other side of the #MeToo conversation.
The New York Times reported Sunday that months after publicly accusing Harvey Weinstein of rape, Argento made a deal with a young actor who accused her of sexual assault.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department on Monday said it was trying to reach the actor in order to "appropriately document any potential criminal allegations."
Argento was among the first women to accuse now disgraced movie mogul Weinstein of sexual misconduct and has been a leading figure in the #MeToo movement.

The New York Times says it has lawyers' documents showing that actor and musician Jimmy Bennett alleged Argento sexually assaulted him in 2013 when he was 17 and she was 37.
According to the publication, Bennett said the assault took place at a hotel in California, where the age of consent is 18. Bennett played Argento's son in the 2004 movie "The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things."
The Times reported they received the documents "through encrypted email by an unidentified party," and that they included "a selfie dated May 9, 2013, of the two lying in bed."
"As part of the agreement, Mr. Bennett, who is now 22, gave the photograph and its copyright to Ms. Argento, now 42," the story said. "Three people familiar with the case said the documents were authentic."
Bennett reportedly asked Argento for $3.5 million in damages, a month after she spoke out about Weinstein last October and that Argento later arranged to pay Bennett $380,000.
The first installment was made in April 2018, the New York Times said.
 
Its not really that odd... a rapist can be raped... a murderer can be murdered....in the sick environment of celebrities and fame I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a frequent happenstance...
 
Well consistency and logic are tools of the patriarchy so to be consistent I’m gonna call bullshit on him being a “victim”. Victims file police reports they don’t ask for hush money. Also to be consistent Ms Argento needs to be banished from the entertainment industry just like Harvey Weinstein was.
 
she paid a 22 year-old guy $380k to stfu after giving him a blowjob 5 years ago.
it's highly doubtful he suffered any pain or anguish as a 17 year old boy would **** a tree if he had lube.

Mr. Bennett, who has an eye condition that prevents him from driving, arrived at Ms. Argento’s hotel room that morning with a family member, according to his notice of intent.

The document lays out Mr. Bennett’s account: Ms. Argento asked the family member to leave so she could be alone with the actor. She gave him alcohol to drink and showed him a series of notes she had written to him on hotel stationery. Then she kissed him, pushed him back on the bed, removed his pants and performed oral sex. She climbed on top of him and the two had intercourse, the document says. She then asked him to take a number of photos.

Later that day she posted a close-up of their faces on Instagram with the caption, “Happiest day of my life reunion with @jimmymbennett xox,” and added that “jimmy is going to be in my next movie and that is a fact, dig that jack.” That post and others were included with the notice of intent, along with three photos apparently taken by Mr. Bennett that depict him and Ms. Argento in bed, their unclothed torsos exposed. (Only one of the photos taken in bed shows both their faces.)

The two had lunch, and Mr. Bennett headed home to Orange County, where he lived with his parents. As he was driven home, according to his claim, he began to feel “extremely confused, mortified, and disgusted.”

But a month later, on June 8, he sent Ms. Argento a Twitter message, “Miss you momma!!!!” that included a photograph of an engraved bracelet she had given him to commemorate the movie. (His Twitter account has recently been shut down.)

That same month, he confronted his mother and stepfather over the state of a trust into which some of his earnings as an actor had been deposited, according to a lawsuit he filed in Orange County Superior Court in October 2014.

Mr. Bennett claimed his parents had barred him from the family’s house and kept his possessions, and over the years had cheated him out of at least $1.5 million in earnings. He said he was broke and two months behind on his rent. The case was settled in December 2014, but the terms were not disclosed.

In the agreement between Ms. Argento and Mr. Bennett, she agreed to pay him $380,000 over the course of a year and a half, starting with an initial payment of $200,000 that was made in April, according to a letter to Ms. Argento in which her lawyer, Ms. Goldberg, outlined the terms of the deal.

The agreement does not prevent either party from discussing it. In the letter, Ms. Goldberg explained that California law does not allow nondisclosure agreements in civil contracts involving the types of allegations made by Mr. Bennett.

One alternative, Ms. Goldberg wrote, would be to work around the California law by using New York lawyers and arguing that the laws of New York govern the agreement.
 
Not to worry folks. The Left is going to explain to us all how Argento's actions were actually her charitable means of solving this young man's Oedipus-related struggles. We simply are too shallow to understand. Much like we couldn't possibly understand that Lena Dunham didn't sexually molest her younger sister for years on end. That was simply a sibling bond of deep and epic proportions that we cannot possibly ever fathom.

The Left is a DARK and sick place.
 
That slut drove Anthony Bourdain to his grave.

They buried that one quick, but it seems like some pretty bad **** took place there. Photographer snaps pic of her with another man days before, and then she posts "**** Everybody: you know who you are" hours before his suicide and then immediately removed it upon the news going global.

Move Over Vagina, Make Room for the Trans-Inclusive 'Front Hole'


Healthline has decided that the word "vagina" is too triggering for trans people and so they will now use the term "front hole" in their sex education materials. No, really.

"The notion that a penis is exclusively a male body part and a vulva is exclusively a female body part is inaccurate. By using the word “parts” to talk about genitals and using medical terms for anatomy without attaching a gender to it, we become much more able to effectively discuss safe sex in a way that’s clear and inclusive.

"For the purposes of this [supposedly educational] guide, we’ll refer to the vagina as the 'front hole' instead of solely using the medical term 'vagina.' This is gender-inclusive language that’s considerate of the fact that some trans people don’t identify with the labels the medical community attaches to their genitals.

This is someone who had sex with Harvey Weinstein for 4 years after he supposedly raped her.

Sorry that dog's not gonna hunt.

Exactly.

She was his mistress and they had a long term affair. People that have been sexually assaulted don’t voluntarily have sex with their abuser every time they are in town.
 
When I was 17, I dreamed about getting "raped' by a hottie.
