The Harvey Weinstein Verdict Is In: Guilty Of Third Degree Rape And Criminal Sexual Act

Harvey Weinstein‘s slow destruction has come to end, in New York anyway. Harvey was on trial in New York for predatory sexual assault, first and third-degree rape, and for a criminal sex act. He’s been hobbling into court with a walker and now we know if his sad, frail, could-never-rape-anyone act, I mean, totally real back pain suffering got him some sympathy from jurors. And it may have, because WTF. Last week, the jury let the judge know they were hung on two predatory sexual assault charges, unlike Harvey who no one would describe as hung. The judge told them to keep deliberating. And now the verdict is in and he’s been found guilty of criminal sexual act and third-degree rape and not guilty of first degree rape or the predatory sexual assaults.

The jury in New York convicted Weinstein, 67, of third-degree rape against former aspiring actress Jessica Mann, as well as a count of criminal sexual act in the first-degree against former production assistant Mimi Haley.

But the jury found him not guilty on two counts predatory sexual assault, which could have resulted in a life sentence. He was also acquitted on a count of first-degree rape against Mann.

The jury of seven men and five women deliberated for five days,causing anxiety among his accusers.

Annabella Sciorra, who accused Harvey of raping her in the 90s, testified against him. Annabella’s allegation fell outside the statute of limitations, but prosecutors were hoping her testimony would help the jury to throw a guilty verdict at Harvey for predatory sexual assault.

The criminal sex act charge could get Harvey up to 25 years in prison, so while Harvey won’t be getting life in prison, nor was he held accountable for the more serious crimes alleged against him, he could be sent to the clink for a while. And he still has to face charges in L.A. AND and Harvey Weinstein is now convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein.

Harvey was taken into custody after the verdict and he’ll remain behind bars until his sentencing on March 11. So, being locked up will give him sometime to amp up his WOE IS ME act for sentencing… as every jury member gets a lobotomy to forget the sight of his genitals.
