Separate decisions achieved at Harvey Weinstein Retrial sex

Harvey Weinstein has been punished for one accusation of criminal sex but was released with a second count in his sex crime in New York.
The Manhattan jury cannot reach the verdict on the third rape count. The judge rejected the jury for that day but instructed them to continue to negotiate on the count Thursday.
Split’s verdict emerged after several clear disputes in the jury during the deliberation.

Previously on Wednesday, the jury sent a note to tell Judge Curtis Farber that he “could not return to the people.” It followed a closed conversation where Forepson complained to the judge that the judges “attacked” with each other-added, “I do not like”-according to the transcript.
Without the judges, Weinstein spoke to the judge on Wednesday and complained that the jury’s behavior seized a just trial.
“We have heard the threat, we have heard a fight, we have heard of intimidation,” Weinstein said. “This is not right for me, the person who is tried here.”
Farber has proposed a cooling period, then the jury again said that they had a verdict on two charges.
In firing the jury on Wednesday, Farber reminded the judges to respect each other.
Weinstein is being told again for sexually harassing two women, Mimi Haley and Jessica Mann, after the previous sentence was canceled by appeal. He was also charged with sexual harassment of the third woman, Kaja Sokola, who was not part of the first trial.
The jury sentenced Weinstein to be involved in criminal sex with Haley but freed him to be involved in criminal sex with Sokola.
The judges will continue their consideration on the calculation of rape involving MANN on Thursday.
The three women openly advance and testify during the trial.
Weinstein, 73, claimed to be innocent and said that his sexual meeting was the same. He did not testify during the trial.

The prosecutor said Weinstein “preying of three women” because “he held unlimited power for more than 30 years” in Hollywood, while the defender denied the producer did not force the women and claimed them to use it for their relationship.
“Harvey Weinstein has great control over those who work on television and film. He decides who is in and who is out,” prosecutor Shannon Lucey told the jury of seven women and five men at the beginning of the trial. “He holds a gold ticket. The opportunity to make it or not.”
Lucey claimed that “not” was “not a word that was accustomed to the defendant.”
Weinstein’s defense lawyer, Arthur Aidala, agreed with the prosecutor that Weinstein was a strong man in the television and film industry, but he told the Weinstein jury not to force the women he accused of attacking. Conversely, Aidala claimed that Weinstein was involved in a “mutually beneficial relationship” which according to the lawyer had been going on in Hollywood for a hundred years.
“They play with him in a consensus,” claims Aidala. “Sofa casting is not the scene of crime.”
In detailing the alleged sexual violence, Lucey claimed that when Haley went to Weinstein’s Crosby Street’s apartment in July 2006 to discuss the role of production in “Project Runway,” he is suspected of “holding him” and making him able to do forced sexual behavior.
Sokola was 16 when he first met Weinstein in 2002 at a restaurant in a western village shortly after signing a modeling contract to come to New York from Poland. A few years later, in 2006, Weinstein threw Sokola in addition to “The Nanny Diaries.” After lunch at a Manhattan hotel that year, Weinstein was allegedly “pressing his shoulder with enough strength to bring him to bed” and force oral sex on the 19 -year -old when he said, “Please don’t do this,” Lucey claimed.
Lucey also claimed that Weinstein who was allegedly forced Sokola to touch her genitals in a Manhattan apartment when she was 16 years old. Weinstein was not charged in the alleged incident in 2002 in the indictment, because it was outside the restriction law. But the judge has allowed Sokola to testify about it during the trial, along with the alleged second incident involving Weinstein which he said occurred in 2004. Sokola had previously filed a lawsuit in New York under the law of child victims for the alleged incident in 2002, which since then the prosecutor has been completed.
In 2013, Weinstein allegedly made Mann had sex without his consent in a hotel, according to Lucey. Mann testified that Weinstein raped him after knowing that he had a serious girlfriend who was an actor. Lucey claimed Mann was also involved in sexual meetings with Weinstein who was not forced for fearing his strength in this industry.
This new trial emerged after the New York Appeals Court canceled the initial sentence of 2020 last year last year, found the trial judge “mistakenly recognizing the testimony of the previously charged sexual acts against people other than the complaints about the underlying crimes.”
Weinstein also appealed the belief in December 2022 about sex violations in Los Angeles. He was sentenced to 16 years in prison there.
