Disgraced media mogul Harvey Weinstein was charged Friday with three additional rapes that allegedly occurred in Beverly Hills, California.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office said Weinstein raped a woman at a hotel sometime between September 2004 and September 2005 and raped a second woman twice, once in November 2009 and again in November 2010.
"I am thankful to the first women who reported these crimes and whose courage have given strength to others to come forward," District Attorney Lacey wrote in a statement released Friday. "The willingness of these latest victims to testify against a powerful man gives us the additional evidence we need to build a compelling criminal case."
