Harvey Weinstein Hospitalized After Rape Conviction Overturned in New York


Harvey Weinstein has been hospitalized in New York City, days after the New York Court of Appeals overturned his 2020 rape conviction.

Attorney Arthur Aidala said Saturday that Weinstein was admitted to Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan for a battery of tests, according to the Associated Press. On Thursday, the court found in a 4-3 ruling that the judge in Weinstein’s trial had shown prejudice by allowing 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.”
