Today's testimony is short but compelling and it comes from Elizabeth Entin, a friend of Weinstein accuser Mimi Haleyi. Entin is a former roommate of Haleyi and she described how Haleyi told her that Weinstein forced oral sex on her.  She also told the court that she advised Haleyi to speak to a lawyer after the alleged assault but she declined. Entin also explained how Haleyi told her  that  Weinstein barged into her apartment and pestered her inviting her to Paris as his guest.

However her chihuahua, Peanut, was chasing Weinstein around the apartment and according to Entin the 300 pound movie producer was afraid of the dog and he left the apartment abruptly. Weinstein disagreed and told a courtroom reporter as he left the building ,“Do I look like I would be frightened of a chihuahua?"

Also in today's episode, we give you an inside look at the twelve jurors who will be evaluating the evidence against Weinstein.  The jury is diverse in background and includes a woman who is a writer with an upcoming novel that describes relations between young women and “predatory” older men. Defense lawyers, who were out of challenges, argued that she should not serve because she had not revealed details about her book in her questionnaire.
