According to court papers, Harvey Weinstein suggested that Jennifer Aniston “should be killed” when he realized the National Enquirer was planning to report that he sexually assaulted her.

According to Page Six, during the height of the disgraced mogul’s #MeToo investigations, Harvey’s spokeswoman forwarded him an email from the Enquirer.

In its email, according to court papers, the Enquirer said that “Jennifer confided to a friend that during the production of the 2005 movie Derailed [Harvey] sexually assaulted her by pressing up against her back in [and] grabbing her buttocks.”

The Enquirer also reported, “Through the years he would frequently stare at her cleavage/breast and move his mouth around making Jennifer uncomfortable,” adding, “We also quote a source close to Jennifer who tells the Enquirer: ‘Harvey was infatuated with Jennifer Aniston — He had a massive crush on her and constantly talked about how hot she was.'”

Harvey apparently sent his spokeswoman a text message in response to the email, saying: “Jen Aniston should be killed.”

As Page Six reports, those emails were part of a slew of discovery filed under seal in Manhattan Supreme Court. It’s since been made public ahead of Harvey’s scheduled sentencing this week for raping a hairdresser and forcibly performing oral sex on a former Project Runway production assistant.

The Enquirer never published the allegations regarding Jennifer, though Harvey’s PR person, Stephen Huvane, claimed at the time: “Jennifer has never been harassed or assaulted by Harvey Weinstein. He never got close enough to touch her and she has never been alone with him.”

Wow… something tells us we’re going to find out much more about Harvey’s behavior in the coming days.
