Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA US judge has declared a mistrial in the new trial of disgraced cinema mogul Harvey Weinstein after a jury once again failed to reach a verdict on allegations he sexually assaulted actor Jessica Mann, the prosecutor says.
“While we are disappointed that the proceedings ended with a mistrial, we deeply respect the jury system and sincerely thank all of the jurors for their time and dedication. For nearly a decade, Jessica Mann has fought for justice,” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg say in a statement.
