NEW YORK: Harvey Weinstein has been hit with new criminal charges, a prosecutor said on Thursday (Sep 12), as the Manhattan district attorney's office prepares to retry the former movie mogul following the reversal of his rape conviction.
Former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein appears for a status hearing in New York Criminal Court in New York, US, 19 July 2024. NEW YORK: Harvey Weinstein has been hit with new criminal charges, a prosecutor said on Thursday , as the Manhattan district attorney's office prepares to retry the former movie mogul following the reversal of his rape conviction.
Weinstein's defence lawyer Arthur Aidala said the grand jury was probing three"matters," but did not know whether that referred to specific incidents or the number of accusers. At the hearing, Farber ordered that Weinstein remain in custody at Bellevue Hospital, finding that the latest health care showed he was not getting adequate treatment at Rikers.
Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years in prison for the New York case, and to 16 years in prison for the separate California case.
