A woman confronted disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein at a Manhattan bar where he was "allowed to laugh and clap and drink and flirt and no one was saying anything". 

Weinstein can be seen trying to ignore the screaming woman who yelled "I'm gonna stand four feet from a f**king rapist and no one's gonna say anything?" while at the Downtime Bar on October 23. The woman, Zoe Stuckless took to social media to share the incident and also detailed out how Weinstein's bodyguards 'herded' her out. 

She added that even the event organizers "were happy to see her go". According to Stuckless, Weinstein was surrounded by "a cadre of young women". While posting pictures and videos from the incident, Stuckless had written, "He wasn't hiding. He came to watch young artists be vulnerable on stage". She also urged social media users to share her story across various platforms.

Stuckless said because 'no one said anything' after the show began, she didn't think it was him. It was when a comedian on stage called out to the crowd to address 'the elephant in the room' that she realized his presence. Stuckless claims the event organizers, bartenders and others at the gathering  'booed her into silence' and 'compliance'.

Stuckless also recalled being very alarmed when she came to know that Weinstein was sitting in a booth at the bar. "I was sitting there, and the more that I sat there waiting for the event organizers to kick him out, or for another performer to call him out, or for the audience to revolt, the more I found myself paralyzed by the silence," she revealed. 

"He was sitting there, allowed to laugh and clap and drink and flirt and no one was saying anything. The more I sat there the more furious I was at all of our inaction," she continued. The event was solely for writers, directors, actors, musicians, as well as a select group of artists.

A spokesperson for Weinstein shared with DailyMail, "Harvey Weinstein was out with friends enjoying the music and trying to find some solace in his life that has been turned upside down. This scene was uncalled for, downright rude and an example of how due process today is being squashed by the public, trying to take it away in the courtroom too."
