While Harvey Weinstein won’t receive the same wall-to-wall cable coverage as O.J. Simpson, in the social media age his upcoming trial could similarly boost the profile of Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon
Marcia Clark became a household name after her televised prosecution of O.J. Simpson in 1995. While Harvey Weinstein won’t receive the same wall-to-wall cable coverage, in the social media age his upcoming trial could similarly boost the profile of Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon.
In advance of the trial, Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance and his office have been barred from making extrajudicial statements about the case, but back in October 2018, DA Office spokesman Danny Frost described Illuzzi-Orbon as "one of the finest trial lawyers in the nation, with unparalleled expertise in high-profile cold cases."
Evan Krutoy, a veteran prosecutor turned defense lawyer, says his former colleague’s work isn’t affected by the name, stature or wealth of the defendant. "She is a great investigator and people are very comfortable discussing difficult topics with her," he says, adding that in the courtroom, "she presents as thorough, thoughtful and heartfelt."
