Jury screening resumes in Weinstein rape trial
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleJury selection has resumed at the trial of Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, who has pleaded not guilty to charges he raped a woman in a Manhattan hotel room in 2013 and sexually assaulted another in 2006.
The initial screening process, now on its fifth day, has been stymied by a host of challenges and distractions, including repeatedly denied requests from the defense and a noisy protest outside the courthouse.
Both sides hope to deliver opening statements before the end of this month.
If convicted at a trial expected to last into March, the 67-year-old could face life in prison.
