Creditors of Harvey Weinstein’s former studio on Tuesday moved to question David Glasser, a longtime executive who they suspect enriched himself before a sexual harassment scandal bankrupted the company, WSJ Pro Bankruptcy reported. Allegations of sexual harassment and assaults against Weinstein led to criminal charges and forced the sale of his company, Weinstein Co. Glasser, who occupied upper-echelon positions for nearly a decade, was pushed out of his job about a month before Weinstein Co. filed for chapter 11 protection. Weinstein has pleaded not guilty, and denied engaging in nonconsensual sex. Glasser, through his lawyer, Eve Wagner, has said he was made a scapegoat by others who had the power to “halt Harvey Weinstein’s abusive behavior.” The official committee representing Weinstein Co. creditors filed a motion on Tuesday seeking to question Glasser about the company’s role in Weinstein’s alleged misconduct and other matters, such as the money that went into insiders’ pockets in the year before the bankruptcy.
