Disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who was at the center of abuse allegations that spurred the Me Too movement in Hollywood, is resentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting a former production assistant.

In 2020, Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years for assaulting Miriam Haley but his conviction was overturned on appeal in 2024. A jury found him guilty again in 2025 after a retrial in New York.
