Harvey Weinstein's lawyers get their turn to question accuser Miriam Haley at #MeToo retrial
Briefly

Miriam Haley continued her testimony in the retrial of Harvey Weinstein, recounting her allegations of sexual assault from 2006. Under cross-examination by defense attorney Jennifer Bonjean, Haley faced scrutiny over her decision to come forward during the #MeToo movement and the nature of her post-assault relationship with Weinstein. Despite maintaining contact with Weinstein for over a year afterwards, she insisted her motivations were professional rather than sexual. The defense aimed to challenge her credibility by highlighting inconsistencies in her earlier statements about the incidents and her interactions with Weinstein post-allegation.
Haley testified that she kept in touch with Weinstein for more than a year after the alleged assault, indicating a complex relationship that complicates her allegations.
Defense attorney Jennifer Bonjean highlighted inconsistencies in Haley's early comments to the press, suggesting she may have not disclosed the full nature of her relationship with Weinstein.
