NEW YORK - Former movie producer Harvey Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years in prison on Wednesday following his sexual assault and rape conviction last month in a case hailed as a victory for the #MeToo movement against sexual misconduct.
Once one of Hollywood’s most influential producers, Weinstein had faced the possibility of a maximum sentence of 29 years in prison. In an emotional statement in court, Haleyi spoke of the trauma she had endured since the attack, saying, “It scarred me deeply, mentally and emotionally, perhaps irreparably, perhaps forever.”
The jury of seven men and five women acquitted Weinstein on the most serious charges, a single count of first-degree rape as well as two counts of predatory sexual assault, which carried a potential life sentence. Those charges relied on testimony by actress Annabella Sciorra, who said Weinstein raped her in the early 1990s.
Weinstein has been awaiting sentencing in New York’s Rikers Island jail, where he was moved last Thursday after a 10-day hospital stay at Bellevue Hospital where he underwent a procedure to clear a heart blockage. Haleyi testified at the trial that Weinstein invited her to his home in 2006 after she had worked on one of his television productions, backed her into a bedroom, held her down on the bed and forced himself on her orally.
He'll be out in 6 months. That's how money works.
Noiceeeeeee
Presidential pardon for Weinstein from a kindred spirit ..!
Karma
Los Angeles prosecutors:
Seems low?
Maybe he could turn it into a one year montage....
finally they brought him to his knees.,,,deserve it.
The Judge dropped the book 📚 on Harvey’s head
Now do Trump.
I guess the suddenly-sprung-for-court crutches did not quite cut it with the judge.
PLUS HE MAY NEVER BE ABLE TO BE ANYWHERE IN A POSITION OF POWER OR EVEN IN SHOWBIZ. BASICALLY..HE'S DONE.
OF WHICH..IF HE'S 'GOOD BOY' IN PRISON, HE'LL GET TIME KNOCKED OFF FOR 'GOOD BEHAVIOUR' WHICH WOULD GIVE HIM ABOUT AROUND 11 YEARS IN PRISON PLUS ABOUT 5 1/2 YEARS OF PROBATION AND ABOUT $5,000,000.00 IN RESTITUTION IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN ON HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS.
Good.
Bütün sapıkların sonu aynı olur umarım 🙏
The Devil gets his due...finally
that'll do, pig
Sweet
Cool
