Overview

• Weinstein's 2020 rape and sexual assault conviction was overturned in April 2024 due to improper judicial rulings and prejudicial testimony, leading to a retrial.
• The retrial includes two charges from the original case and one new charge based on an allegation from a woman who was not part of the first trial.
• Jury selection has begun, with the process expected to last up to five days; opening arguments are anticipated next week.
• The trial will feature testimony from accusers Miriam Haley, Jessica Mann, and a new accuser identified as CW-3, who alleges Weinstein forced oral sex on her in 2006.
• Weinstein, now 73 and in declining health, remains incarcerated at Rikers Island and has pleaded not guilty to all charges, maintaining his encounters were consensual.
