US EditionWeinstein trial ends in mistrial on final rape charge after jury foreman refuses to deliberate
- On June 12-13, 2025, a Manhattan jury convicted Harvey Weinstein of one criminal sexual act from 2006 and acquitted him of a similar charge while deadlocking on a 2013 rape allegation.
- This retrial occurred after New York’s highest court overturned Weinstein's initial 2019 conviction last year, sending the case back for a new trial in the same courthouse.
- Deliberations became contentious as the jury foreperson reported feeling bullied and threatened, ultimately refusing to continue, which led the judge to declare a mistrial on the unresolved rape charge.
- Judge Curtis Farber noted the jury was disappointed with the mistrial outcome and described the deliberations as heated but productive, while District Attorney Alvin Bragg pledged to retry the remaining charge.
- The partial verdict reinforces Weinstein's conviction on one criminal sexual act, but the mistrial on the third-degree rape charge means New York intends to pursue further legal action against him.
