Share:
A New York judge declared a mistrial in the third criminal case against former film producer Harvey Weinstein, ending proceedings without a verdict. The trial centered on allegations that Weinstein sexually assaulted aspiring actress Jessica Mann at a Manhattan hotel in 2013. Weinstein, the disgraced Hollywood mogul whose downfall sparked the global #MeToo movement, was already serving prison sentences from previous convictions for rape and sexual assault in New York and Los Angeles. The mistrial represents another chapter in the ongoing legal battles surrounding Weinstein, who faces multiple sexual assault allegations from dozens of women spanning decades in the entertainment industry.
