Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced former movie producer, has been diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia while incarcerated at Rikers Island, where he is awaiting a retrial on sex charges stemming from his previous conviction, which was overturned earlier this year. His health issues have escalated recently, following a heart surgery last month and a hospitalization due to COVID-19 and pneumonia in July. Weinstein's representatives have condemned speculation regarding his health, emphasizing the importance of privacy and declining to comment further. Amidst these health challenges, he has pleaded not guilty to new sex crime allegations, and prosecutors are pushing to consolidate his various charges. Concerns regarding his well-being have been raised, especially in light of his ongoing legal battles and past health complications. The impact of his cancer diagnosis on his upcoming trial remains uncertain.
