US EditionHarvey Weinstein doesn’t plan to testify at sex crimes retrial
- Harvey Weinstein does not plan to testify at his sex crimes retrial in New York, which began on April 23, 2025, and will soon reach closing arguments.
- The retrial follows a 2024 appeals court ruling that overturned Weinstein's 2020 convictions due to unlawful witness handling, requiring the case to be re-prosecuted.
- Weinstein is accused of sexually assaulting Jessica Mann in 2013 and compelling Miriam Haley and Kaja Sokola to perform oral sex in separate incidents in 2006, with all three women providing emotional testimony during the retrial.
- Defense attorney Arthur Aidala characterized the interactions as consensual "friends with benefits" relationships and urged the jury to favor Weinstein by rejecting the prosecution’s case if they harbored any uncertainties, emphasizing that any lingering questions should lead to acquittal.
- Weinstein denies the allegations, is serving a 16-year California prison sentence from a separate conviction, and faces possible life imprisonment if convicted again in New York.
