Weinstein Retrial and Jeffries Arrest Highlight Elite Abuse

Harvey Weinstein's retrial on sex crimes has been delayed as the judge consolidates existing charges with a new allegation of assault. Initially scheduled for November 12, the retrial will now likely start in early 2025, allowing time for further investigation. Weinstein, who has pleaded not guilty, is facing renewed accusations after his 2020 conviction was overturned by the New York Court of Appeals. He is currently battling health issues while being moved between Rikers Island and Bellevue Hospital. Meanwhile, former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries was arrested for alleged sex trafficking, highlighting ongoing issues of power and abuse within elite circles. Both Weinstein and Jeffries deny the allegations, with ongoing legal proceedings expected to further unfold.
