An accuser will be allowed to use the word “force” in her testimony at Harvey Weinstein’s retrial even though the disgraced movie mogul was acquitted of a rape charge that alleged he used physical force against her, a judge ruled Wednesday. Manhattan Judge Curtis Farber reversed his earlier decision to forbid the one-time aspiring actor from telling jurors that Weinstein used force against her, explaining that after a review of case law he decided it would be unreasonable to put limits on how she describes what she says happened. “She will not be precluded from using the term force or describing the use of force," Farber said at the last pretrial hearing before jury selection is set to begin next Tuesday.
