Rapist Harvey Weinstein planned to open sex addiction center run by women to restore ‘good’ image, court docs reveal

His victims have asked the judge that no "special treatment" be given to the rapist, as reports emerge that he said that for telling a friend he had groped her in 2005.

The lengthy public statement was buried by Weinstein's PR advisers until the Manhattan Supreme Court released them yesterday.

He wrote: "I'm a sex addict. I'm an anger addict" calling his flaws "being rude" in his "quest for perfection".

Weinstein writes that his idea for a sex addict rehab center stemmed from an old TV show.

One of the characters creates a hospital named St. Jude's, where children receive free treatment.

He writes: "Why don't I build a St. Jude's run by women?''

'I'M A SEX ADDICT'

He pinned the bill on "my connections" and would "turn it over to the women."

"It will be a place where women can talk, have groups, explain their experiences and talk to men directly."

"It wouldn't be just men having group therapies, but women confronting them, talking to them, understanding why they acted out."

Finally addressing the error of his ways he wrote: "I'm going to build this. Not to make myself look good. I don't care about that. It's a mission for me now to do this. I have to do the right thing."

The strongest words in the documents and emails came from his brother Bob, who told him: "If you actually say you are trying to get better, it's just another lie amongst the millions.

"F*** you Harvey Weinstein. I pray there is a real hell. That's where you belong.

You deserve a lifetime achievement award for the sheer savagery and immorality and inhumanness, for the acts you have perpetrated. "

The documents also show that when he was about to get sacked he emailed other friends including Mike Bloomberg and Jeff Bezos begging them for help.

"It'll destroy me and cause a huge legal battle based on my rights," he wrote.

"If I have support from someone like you getting behind me going into treatment and having the shot at a second chance (because people deserve a second chance), it would be very helpful."

Following his conviction in February Weinstein was eventually sent to Rikers Island.

He is currently being treated for a concussion after he fell and hit his head on Saturday night.

After today Weinstein will face a second trial in LA that was filed in January.

Those charges include forcible rape, forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by use of force and sexual battery by restraint, carrying a potential 28-year prison sentence in addition to the one he will face today.
