Harvey Weinstein rape retrial ends in mistrial after jury deadlock

· 1 min read · HOC Newsroom

Harvey Weinstein's rape retrial has ended in a mistrial after the jury deadlocked in the closely watched #MeToo-era case. The Manhattan jury was weighing whether Weinstein raped Jessica Mann, a hairstylist and actor, in 2013. While the former Hollywood mogul has been convicted of other sex crimes on two U.S. coasts and remains incarcerated, the New York rape charge remains unresolved after three separate trials.
