Director Oliver Stone is coming under fire for his attempt to defend Harvey Weinstein.
Amid the outpouring of support for the women who have spoken out about the disgraced producer allegedly sexually harassing or assaulting them, the Snowden director commented on Harvey’s situation.
At the Busan International Film Festival in South Korea, he was quoted saying:
“I’m a believer that you wait until this thing gets to trial. I believe a man shouldn’t be condemned by a vigilante system. It’s not easy what he’s going through, either. During that period he was a rival. I never did business with him and didn’t really know him. I’ve heard horror stories on everyone in the business, so I’m not going to comment on gossip. I’ll wait and see, which is the right thing to do.”
On Thursday night, he clarified his statement, taking to Facebook to write he “wasn’t aware of all the women who came out to support the original story.”

He continued:
Well, one former Playboy playmate isn’t buying the 71-year-old’s statement.
Carrie Stevens responded to his original comments on Twitter, revealing she recalled Oliver groping her! She wrote:
When I heard about Harvey, I recalled Oliver walking past me & grabbing my boob as he walked out the front door of a party. Two of a kind!

I need to go wash my boob now. Ewwwww.

Carrie even further elaborated on FB about the incident:
Just earlier this week, the former model slammed Harvey for his inappropriate actions:
Oliver has yet to react to Carrie’s allegation.
