Disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein, who is facing sex-related charges, is set to be arraigned Monday on a new grand jury indictment, which restores a count that had been dismissed by a judge after the defense argued it was barred by the statute of limitations.
The latest grand jury indictment, handed up Wednesday, charges Weinstein again with the challenged count of sexual battery by restraint against a woman in May 2010.
It marks the third time the prosecution has asked the grand jury to amend the indictment against the 69-year-old Weinstein, who was initially indicted in March on 11 counts involving five women.
The challenged count is the only charge involving one of the five alleged victims.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Lisa B. Lench initially sustained the defense's challenge to that count at a July 29 hearing, but agreed to allow the prosecution the opportunity to seek a grand jury indictment to amend the indictment.
“We believe that it will never succeed,” one of Weinstein's attorneys, Mark Werksman, said after an Aug. 12 hearing in which the charge was dismissed.
Los Angeles County prosecutors initially charged Weinstein in January 2020 with forcible rape, forcible oral copulation and sexual penetration by use of force involving one woman on Feb. 18, 2013, and sexual battery by restraint involving another woman a day later.
Weinstein was subsequently charged in April 2020 with sexual battery by restraint — one of the counts challenged by the defense — involving a woman in May 2010. In November 2020, prosecutors added six more counts — three counts each of forcible rape and forcible oral copulation — involving two alleged victims in Beverly Hills between 2004 and 2010.
The grand jury subsequently indicted Weinstein on the same charges.
Question is...how many of the Hollywood "stars" and politicians in the slideshow at top and the video on the bottom do you think will decide to talk (or already have talked) in an effort to save their own souls?
I think I see a few New York politicians with Harvey...hmmm!
When does a "bird" sing?
Listen carefully to what Robin Williams says at the end. Hint: I believe he called Weinstein the Mishpucka...look it up on Google; it's not the last you will be hearing from Robin!
Remember, the military has it ALL!
