Actor
Rose
McGowan,
appeared
on
Evan
Ross
Katz's
podcast
a
day
after
Harvey
Weinstein
was
convicted
of
sexual
assault
and
rape.
During
the
conversation,
she
opened
up
about
the
struggle
and
said
she
still
feels
like
she
is
locked
in
a
battle
and
it
won't
end
until
one
of
them
dies.
On
Katz's
asking,
McGowan
said
the
trial
didn't
give
her
much
closure,
"Probably
not
until
he's
dead
now,
I
feel
like
he
and
I
are
strapped
in
this
battle
together
until
one
of
us
is
dead.
That's
how
it
goes.
I
energetically,
we're
like
just
locked.
It's
a
really
disgusting
feeling.
I
just
would
love
to
be
able
to
be
like
other
people
and
live
my
life.
That
would
be
really
nice,
you
know?"
McGowan
took
to
her
social
media
account
and
thanking
everyone
involved
she
wrote,
"Today
we
can
exhale.
The
stinky
trash
is
gone,"
she
added.
McGowan
also
talked
about
the
statistics
and
said,
only
2%
of
rapes
actually
lead
to
a
conviction,
and
called
being
able
to
see
your
rapist
go
to
jail
as
a
privilege.
"More
work
is
to
be
done
for
sure,
but
today
I
can
say
that
due
to
the
strengths
of
many,
the
prosecutor's
tenacity,
the
jury
who
did
better
than
most,
and
especially
the
women
who
took
the
stand,
there
is
a
monster
off
the
streets."
I'm
proud
of
the
brave
women
who
testified,
they
have
taken
out
a
monster
on
earth.
Thank
you
to
the
prosecutor
&
jury
who
said
not
one
more.
Thank
you
to
the
public
for
examining
things
more
deeply.
I
can
finally
exhale
