$44 million settlement reportedly close in Weinstein sexual ~~misconduct~~ harassment and assault lawsuits

"We now have an economic agreement in principal that is supported by the plaintiffs, the AG's office, the defendants and all of the insurers that, if approved, would provide significant compensation to victims, creditors and the estate, and allow the parties to avoid years of costly, time consuming and uncertain litigation on all sides," Adam Harris, a lawyer for studio co-founder Bob Weinstein, told a bankruptcy court judge in Wilmington, Delaware, on Thursday.
[...]
More than 15 lawsuits have been filed accusing Harvey Weinstein or the company of ~~misconduct~~ raketeering. The settlement would cover many of them, including a class action [!] by alleged victims and a suit by the New York attorney general.
The class-action [!] complaint accuses the company of operating like an organized crime group to conceal widespread sexual harassment and assaults.
