Former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced in New York to 15 years in prison for the 2006 sexual assault of former production assistant Miriam Haley. The sentence was handed down by the court in a retrial. ANSA ↗
Weinstein had already been found guilty in this case earlier, but the previous conviction was overturned in 2024. The court therefore reopened the case, and the jury again found him guilty of a sex crime. Prosecutors had originally sought a 20-year prison sentence. Tagesspiegel ↗
Miriam Haley worked in television production and appeared in the case as the injured party. According to the indictment, the assault took place in 2006. Weinstein denied the allegations of sexual assault. The Guardian ↗
The former producer, who was once among the most influential figures in the American film industry, is already serving a sentence in another sex crimes case. According to available information, he is serving a 16-year sentence, so the new decision could significantly extend his total time in prison. Die Zeit ↗
The Weinstein case became one of the symbols of the MeToo movement in Hollywood. In the past, dozens of women made allegations against him. After the new verdict, the question of further legal steps, including possible appeals, remains open. RTE News ↗
