Harvey Weinstein's Los Angeles conviction and New York retrials
Active · last development Sep 22, 2026: “Harvey Weinstein sentenced to 15 years in prison for 2006 sex crime in New York”
What this arc covers
Harvey Weinstein's criminal cases after his 2020 New York conviction: his Los Angeles trial in 2022, his conviction there on rape charges and his 16-year sentence, prosecutors' decision not to retry the counts the jury could not decide, his appeal to New York's top court, which heard it in February 2024 and overturned his 2020 rape conviction that April, the new charges, his health problems in jail, the 2025 retrial that ended in a partial verdict and a mistrial on one count, the 2026 retrial on that count that ended in another mistrial before prosecutors dropped it, the California appeals court's ruling on his conviction there, and his 15-year sentence in September 2026.
