Harvey Weinstein's 2020 Rape And Sexual Assault Conviction In New York Overturned

Former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was found guilty in 2020 in New York for sexual assault crimes, but those convictions have now been overturned. He was initially found guilty of serious offenses, like criminal sexual act and rape, in a New York City court and was given a 23-year prison sentence. Weinstein was accused of forcing a woman into oral sex in 2006 and raping another woman in 2013. His lawyer argued that he didn't get a fair trial because of the judge and claimed the focus was on Weinstein's character rather than the evidence. It's uncertain if he'll face another trial for these charges, but he's still in prison because of convictions in California from 2022. In that trial, he was found guilty of similar sex crimes, including forcible rape and sexual penetration.
