Harvey Weinstein Pleads Not Guilty to New York Sex Crime Charge

HeadlineSep 20, 2024

Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein pleaded not guilty to a new sex crime charge in New York this week. Weinstein, who has been accused of rape and sexual assault by over 80 survivors, is currently awaiting retrial after a 2020 rape conviction was overturned. He was separately convicted in 2022 in a Los Angeles rape case and remains behind bars. Earlier this week, a federal judge in California dismissed a sex trafficking and sexual assault lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein and Madison Square Garden Chief Executive James Dolan. The men are accused of sexually assaulting a massage therapist named Kellye Croft.
