Harvey Weinstein Found Guilty On Two Counts

UPDATE: “Weinstein was on his way to Rikers Island when the ambulance went to Bellevue Hospital, Weinstein spokeswoman Juda Engelmayer told CNN Monday evening. The reason for the hospital visit was not immediately clear.” According to CNN’s Chole Melas.

UPDATE 2: Weinstein’s attorneys were on Fox News tonight and I am watching the interview now. Attorney Donna Rotunno said just after 7pm eastern time that the judge was aware of Weinstein’s medical conditions and they would be accomadated at Rikers. She also mentioned he was experiencing high blood pressure and heart palpitations after the verdict and sought treatment. 

The Verdict

The verdict is on on the current Harvey Weinstein rape trial. The jury was unable to come to a unanimous decision on the most serious three charges including one or more that  required life in prison.  Harvey Weinstein was found guilty of two of the charges. He was found guilty of criminal sexual act in the first degree. That has a sentence of up to four years. And, rape in the third degree. With a mandatory minimum of five years and a maximum of 25 years.

Weinstein, has been out of jail during the trial. But,. could be remanded into custody today.ence. His lawyers are already in appellate court. They are asking a judge not to send him directly to jail while waiting for an appeal.


Weinstein will be 68 on March 19th. If he only gets the mandatory time he would be 73 upon release from this sentence.

Weinstein was charged in two more cases by the LA district attorney on January 6, 2020. The events happened on two nights in a row. Weinstein was charged with raping one woman and sexually assaulting another in separate incidents over a two-day period in 2013. The felony charges include forcible rape, forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by use of force and sexual battery by restraint. I am not aware of any date set for that trial. I assume they were waiting for the end of the NY trial.

Weinstein left the court in handcuffs to be processed into prison.

    She’s a tough sentencing judge. I haven’t appeared in front of her, but know others who have.

    This has made my day bc I was so afraid he’d get away with his horrid behavior. I could very easily be mistaken, but I thought my local news said he was arrested in the courtroom but I was in a different room so I did not see.
    SJU that’s great to know & I hope the judge gives him the max.

      Yes. As it says in the post he was handcuffed in court and taken to processing.

    Now, how about the rest of them?

    I plan to keep an eye on who supports his projects now that he is in prison.

    My personal opinion only: part of his punishment should be to get harrassed. Daily. And to live in the constant fear of being harrassed every moment.

      I didn’t see it because there were no camera in the courtroom. But apparently he left without needing the aid of his walker.

    They are reporting that he was taken to Bellevue. I suspect he’ll end up at Riker’s tonight or tomorrow.

    The good news: He’s going to die in jail.
    The bad news: They should have found him guilty of more.

    Btw, did you see him walking out of the courtroom on his own? So much for the walker :eyeball

      I read on Twitter (so take with big ol grain of salt) that he’s also claiming that he is going blind. Cosby said the same thing. Don’t care.

    This is wonderful wonderful news. Can’t say I’m not disappointed about the not guilty on the mpre serious charges but am so relieved that he will spend some tears in prison. He is a disgrace to humanity.

    Am I a horrible person for wanting to see what the disfigured genitalia looks like?

      Horrible person is the wrong term. I feel like “iin need of serious therapy” is more apt. /smileyface /notreallysmileyface.

    It’s wonderful news! I hope the control freak rapist bastard lives a long time behind bars. And not in some swanky rich person’s prison. Here’s hoping that more scumbag rapists end up behind bars!
