Harvey Weinstein Appeals 2022 Los Angeles Rape Conviction

Weinstein's legal team argues that his trial was unfair, citing exclusion of key evidence and prejudicial testimony.

Weinstein was convicted in 2022 of rape and sexual assault in Los Angeles and sentenced to 16 years.
His attorneys claim the trial judge wrongly excluded evidence that could have disproved accusations.
The appeal follows the recent overturning of Weinstein's 2020 New York rape conviction.
Weinstein's legal team argues that the jury was prejudiced by testimony about uncharged allegations.
Prosecutors and attorneys for the accusers believe the appeal will be denied and the conviction upheld.
