Then her mother arrived to pick her up."He literally just stuck his fingers down my pantsMelissa Kester told Variety that she was a recent college graduate working on the film "Ishtar" (1987) when Hoffman allegedly sexually assaulted her. Her boyfriend at the time was doing music for the movie, and she went with him a few times to the studio where Hoffman was recording vocal tracks for one of the film's songs, she said. During one visit while Hoffman was in the recording booth, he suddenly put his hands down her pants, she said."As hes doing that, he literally just stuck his fingers down my pants, Kester told Variety. He put his fingers inside me. And the thing I feel most bad about is I didnt know what to do. I just stood there. I just froze in the situation like Oh my God, what is happening' Its shocking when that happens to you. She said it went on for 15-20 seconds and after he was done with the take, she left the booth and went into the bathroom and cried.In a crowded carA third woman, who asked to remain anonymous, also told Variety that Hoffman assaulted her while working on "Ishtar."
