While the disgraced film producer is due to be sentenced after a December rape conviction, his attorneys are requesting a retrial.
Harvey Weinstein is pictured at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center on October 4, 2022 in Los Angeles, California. Attorneys for the disgraced film producer have requested a retrial after he was found guilty of rape.Additionally, AP noted, the four women and eight men of the jury were hung on the charges involving Lauren Young, who also testified at Weinstein's New York trial.
The attorneys stated that they were precluded from showing evidence to the jury that they allege would have impeached Jane Doe #1's credibility and thus impacted the guilty conviction. Weinstein, who faces up to 24 years behind bars for his latest conviction, had been due to be sentenced in January for his conviction, but the judge postponed the day to February 23 to allow his defense time to prepare their argument for another trial.
In a statement released shortly after the guilty verdict, California's first partner Siebel Newsom said:"Weinstein will never be able to rape another woman. He will spend the rest of his life behind bars where he belongs."
