Weinstein could face jail, bail hike over monitoring issues

Harvey Weinstein’s bail has been increased from $1 million to $5 million over allegations he violated bail conditions by mishandling his electronic ankle monitor.

Judge James Burke rejected prosecution calls to put the disgraced movie mogul in jail over the alleged violation.

Weinstein, 67, arrived at court in the morning using a walker. The disgraced movie mogul is scheduled to stand trial in New York City beginning January 6 on rape and sexual assault charges.
