Rosanna Arquette has a response to Harvey Weinstein's recent interview from behind bars: "Here are the facts: The assaults happened. The rapes happened."

In a two-page statement to The Wrap, the actress rejected the disgraced producer's suggestion in a recent interview with *The Hollywood Reporter** *that allegations she and other women, including Gwyneth Paltrow, brought against him had been exaggerated.

In fact, nearly 100 women accused the director of sexual misconduct during his tenure at The Weinstein Company, before he was ousted in November 2017, following the *New York Times* report that he had settled multiple sexual harassment claims over three decades. Multiple lawsuits and criminal charges followed, and Weinstein is currently serving time for sexual assault.

He insisted in his new interview, however, that he was innocent and that the women — he called out Arquette by name — had not been honest with their accusations.

"If the camera's on, I'm just going to say Rosanna Arquette, Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie — they just exaggerated," Weinstein said. "They wanted to be part of the club. And they destroyed me."

Arquette, who's alleged that Weinstein made romantic advances on her in the '90s and that her career suffered afterward, took issue with his statement in her response.

"I have never exaggerated my assault. Ever," wrote Arquette, who alleged that her career suffered after the encounter. "My account of what happened has never changed."

Weinstein has long denied non-consensual sex, but he admitted to behaving badly in his latest exchange. He apologized to the women who brought charges against him.

"I misled them. I cheated on both my wives. That's immoral," Weinstein said. "But I did not assault them. That is the big lie of all of this. I won't apologize for something I didn't do. I will be proven innocent. That I promise you."

While Arquette said she had moved on from what happened with Weinstein, she wrote that she felt it was important that she speak up once again.

"I wish I didn’t have to write this, but the interview happened," Arquette wrote. "And I felt that both the false accusations made against me, and the fog he attempts to weave by denying facts, called for a response."
