Harvey Weinstein has won a legal victory in his rape and sexual assault retrial in Manhattan. He will be transferred from Rikers Island to Bellevue Hospital until the conclusion of the trial due to serious medical conditions. Despite the victory, jury selection for the trial continues, with many potential jurors being excused due to conflicts or bias related to the extensive news coverage of the case. Weinstein, who denies all charges, is facing accusations of rape and forced oral sex from multiple women. The retrial comes after Weinstein’s previous convictions were overturned, leading to a new trial with different charges and evidence. The selection of 12 jurors and six alternates is still ongoing, with opening statements expected to begin on Tuesday. Jonathan Dienst, Tom Shea, and Adam Reiss are involved in reporting on the case.
