Harvey Weinstein rape retrial ends in mistrial; jury deadlocked
Closely watched #MeToo case results in hung jury; conviction status remains uncertain.
Harvey Weinstein's rape retrial in New York has ended in a mistrial after the jury deadlocked, unable to reach a verdict in the closely watched #MeToo-era case. While the former Hollywood mogul has been convicted of other sex crimes on two U.S. coasts and remains incarcerated, the mistrial leaves the New York rape charge unresolved after three separate trials. The outcome underscores the complexities of prosecuting high-profile sexual assault cases.
