Overview

• A Manhattan jury convicted Weinstein of forcing oral sex on former production assistant Miriam Haley in 2006, a first-degree criminal sexual act.
• The panel acquitted him on the Kaja Sokola charge, remains deadlocked on the Jessica Mann rape count and will resume deliberations on that allegation.
• Jurors reported heated confrontations and threats in the deliberation room, prompting Judge Curtis Farber to hold private meetings and deny mistrial requests.
• The retrial follows an appeals court decision that voided Weinstein’s 2020 conviction and has been viewed as a pivotal test for the #MeToo movement’s call for accountability.
• Weinstein remains jailed under a 16-year California sentence, is appealing that verdict and is reported to face serious health challenges in custody.
