Prosecutors of producer Harvey Weinstein are ready to defend their position to the fullest. The date of the new hearing was announced on Wednesday. A Manhattan judge said a new trial in the celebrity’s case will be held in early September.
Weinstein, 72, could not move in the courtroom without assistance. It is known that he has serious health problems. “Our Special Victims Unit fights every day to highlight survivors, amplify their voices, and seek justice for these horrific crimes,” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, a spokesman for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, told the Mirror.
Recall that Harvey Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years in prison in 2020 for two crimes: rape in 2013 and forcible oral sex in 2006. He was later sentenced to an additional 16 years in prison in February 2023 on charges that he raped actress Jane Doe. For this reason, although the case is being investigated, the producer is still detained. The decision was overturned a few days ago.
