Weinstein Concedes He Acted 'Immorally' as Jury Deliberations Pause
- Harvey Weinstein, a disgraced Hollywood mogul, faced jury deliberations in Manhattan on his sex crimes retrial after six weeks of testimony ending in early June 2025.
- The retrial followed a 2020 appeals court decision that overturned Weinstein's 23-year sentence due to witness irregularities, requiring a new trial on charges involving three women.
- During the retrial, prosecutors presented testimony from three alleged victims including Kaja Sokola and Jessica Mann, while Weinstein's defense claimed the encounters were consensual amid a 'casting couch' dynamic.
- Weinstein admitted he acted ‘immorally’ yet insisted he never committed a criminal act, citing regrets about the impact on his family and accusing accusers of having 'four million reasons' to testify.
- The jury paused deliberations for the weekend with no verdict, and Weinstein remained imprisoned while also seeking a $5 million settlement for medical treatment amid serious health issues.
