💨 Abstract

During Harvey Weinstein's sex crimes retrial, key witness Jessica Mann emotionally recounted an alleged 2014 rape by Weinstein, who denies the charges. After her testimony, Mann sobbed and pointed at Weinstein as she left the courtroom. Weinstein's lawyer requested a mistrial due to her dramatic gesture, but the judge denied it. Weinstein, convicted in 2017 on sex charges, faces retrial after his New York conviction was overturned.
