Weinstein's Legal Team Appealing 2020 Rape Conviction
(New York, New York) - Attorneys representing convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein, the onetime titan of Hollywood whose trials in the public sphere and courtrooms on both U.S. coasts defined the #MeToo reckoning, will appear before an Albany judge today to argue that his 2020 conviction was not the result of a fair trial. Weinstein was separately sentenced in February 2023 to 16 years in prison in a Los Angeles criminal case.
