BREAKING: Harvey Weinstein found guilty of rape and sexual assault by a jury in Los Angeles.
LOS ANGELES — Harvey Weinstein was found guilty Monday of one count of rape and two counts of sexual assault but acquitted of a count of sexual battery after a trial in Los Angeles, nearly three years after the disgraced movie mogul was convicted at a watershed sex crimes trial in New York City.
The jury found Weinstein guilty of three counts related to the accuser known as Jane Doe 1: forcible rape, forcible oral copulation and sexual penetration by foreign object. Jane Doe 4's lawyers have identified her to NBC News as Jennifer Siebel Newsom, a documentary filmmaker who is married to California Gov. Gavin Newsom. She was one of 44 witnesses for the prosecution who testified,as she described the night Weinstein allegedly raped her in a Beverly Hills hotel suite.
When the guilty verdicts were read, Weinstein looked down at a table and appeared to put his head in his hands. He then looked straight ahead as the rest of the verdicts were read aloud.The trial took on higher stakes after the New York State Court of Appeals agreed in August to allow Weinstein to appeal his 2020 conviction.
"I stand in awe of their fearlessness," he added."They deserve better than what the system has given them."
