Harvey Weinstein Declared Mistrial Due to Jury Foreperson’s Concerns

A mistrial has been declared in Harvey Weinstein’s remaining rape charge after the jury foreperson expressed concerns over ongoing deliberations. The majority-female jury convicted Weinstein of one 2006 sexual assault but acquitted him on another from the same year. A new trial date for the third charge has yet to be revealed.

Weinstein, 73, was retried five years after his previous conviction in February 2020 of rape and a felony sex crime connected to individual allegations from accusers Mann and Haley, respectively. He was acquitted at the time on two charges of predatory sexual assault.

The jury’s deliberations were ongoing when the foreperson expressed concerns about being bullied by another juror. The judge declared a mistrial after the foreperson stated he felt afraid inside the jury room. A new trial date has yet to be announced.
