Harvey Weinstein doesn’t plan to testify at sex crimes retrial
- On May 29, 2025, Harvey Weinstein appeared in a retrial related to sexual offenses in a New York City court and chose not to take the witness stand to defend himself.
- Weinstein’s 2020 New York convictions were overturned in 2024 due to witness presentation irregularities, leading to this retrial that began on April 23, 2025.
- The retrial involves allegations that Weinstein sexually assaulted Jessica Mann by rape in 2013, and separately compelled Miriam Haley and Kaja Sokola to perform oral sex in 2006, with all three women delivering detailed and emotional testimony.
- Defense attorney Arthur Aidala urged jurors to favor Weinstein if they had any uncertainty regarding the prosecution's evidence, emphasizing that such uncertainty should lead to dismissing the charges.
- The jury will hear closing arguments on June 3, 2025, and is expected to begin deliberations that day, which could determine Weinstein’s fate amid his ongoing 16-year California sentence.
