Prosecutors in Manhattan might bring new accusations against the previously convicted former movie mogul.
Weinstein, who was also convicted of rape in a separate Los Angeles trial in 2022, was sentenced to 23 years in prison in the New York case and an additional 16 in California, the latter to be served after his New York term ended. Initially imprisoned at New York's Mohawk Correctional Facility, the 72-year-old remains in the Bronx's Rikers Island as he awaits retrial.
” Weinstein’s lawyer Arthur Aidala called prosecutors' efforts to lay bare new claims was a “delay tactic' intended to keep Weinstein in Rikers. “They have a defendant and now they’re out there looking for a crime,” Aidala said, calling the search for additional survivors “1-800-GET-HARVEY.” Those potential new claims were not specified on Friday, when Weinstein returned to court for a pre-retrial hearing, the New York Times reports.
