Harvey Weinstein Retrial Set for November

Harvey Weinstein's retrial for rape and sexual assault charges in Manhattan is tentatively set to begin on November 12, following the overturning of his 2020 conviction. Prosecutors are gathering new evidence and may bring additional charges against Weinstein. The judge expressed willingness to expedite the trial depending on prosecutors' progress. Weinstein, who denies the allegations, faces health issues and is currently jailed on Rikers Island. His legal team seeks proper medical care for him before the retrial. Despite the overturned conviction, Weinstein remains incarcerated due to a separate rape conviction in California.
