“I was scared at the time nobody was going to believe me. I didn’t want to make a scene. I just wanted to go home,” she told BuzzFeed. “It was the most horrible thing I’ve ever experienced.”

Taneie, who is now 30, adds that the alleged attack only stopped when an assistant director happened to pass by.  She claims Piven then told the AD to “remove Taneie from the set because he said she came on to him[.]”
