Harvey Weinstein's rape retrial is set with a predominantly female jury, contrasting his previous trial five years ago. This change comes after New York's highest court overturned his 2020 conviction due to prejudicial testimony allowed by the original trial judge. Weinstein, now 73, pleads not guilty to all charges. The chosen jury encompasses diverse professionals from various fields, highlighting the broad public interest and scrutiny surrounding this landmark #MeToo case.
"The main jury is more female than the five women and seven men who convicted Weinstein at his first trial five years ago."
"New York's highest court last year overturned Weinstein's 2020 conviction and 23-year prison sentence, finding prejudicial testimony was allowed."
