Harvey Weinstein Expected to Face New Sexual Assault Allegations in Retrial for Overturned Conviction in November


Prosecutors in Harvey Weinstein's upcoming retrial say that more alleged rape and sexual abuse victims will testify this fall.

Prosecutors in Harvey Weinstein ‘s upcoming retrial in New York say that more alleged rape and sexual abuse victims will testify this fall. On April 25, New York’s highest court ruled in a 4-3 decision that the judge in Weinstein’s 2020 rape trial had allowed too many women to testify about allegations that were not part of the case. “It is an abuse of judicial discretion to permit untested allegations of nothing more than bad behavior that destroys a defendant’s character but sheds no light on their credibility as related to the criminal charges lodged against them.”
