WARNER FIRES AJ CALLOWAY AFTER INVESTIGATION

Warner had suspended Calloway in February 2019, after several women came forward, accusing the TV host of sexual assault.

THE ACCUSATIONS OF ASSAULT PILE UP

As of January 2019, two more women have come forward and accused Calloway of sexual assault. Calloway continues to maintain his innocence and claims he will be exonerated.

“As I have maintained from the beginning, these allegations are not true. When I was first notified about these allegations by law enforcement more than a decade ago, I fully cooperated from the beginning and the case was dismissed,” he said.

THE VICTIMS DESCRIBE IDENTICAL ACCOUNTS

Over a decade ago, Abrams reported that she had struggled with Calloway in a car for six minutes as he exposed himself to her, eventually pleasuring himself in her presence.

The two new victims have given practically identical descriptions of their own assaults, and who knows how many more women may yet come forward.

Calloway is just one more in a long list of celebrities who have been exposed as sexual predators in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal and the #MeToo movement.

HARVEY WEINSTEIN - THE FALL OF A TITAN

Once, Harvey Weinstein was one of the most powerful men in the entertainment industry, Mr. Hollywood himself.

But his success and influence hid a dark secret: Weinstein was a rapist and a sexual predator who used his power and status to prey on young actresses.

After actress Ashley Judd revealed that she had been assaulted by Weinstein as a young actress, dozens of other women came forward - women like Rose McGowan, Rosanna Arquette, Kate Beckinsale, Eva Green, Gwyneth Paltrow, and many more.

After decades of abuse, Weinstein will finally have to give an account for his actions to the many young women he harmed.
