The jury considering the fate of disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein, facing retrial for rape and sexual assault, retired Tuesday without reaching a verdict after requesting to review significant portions of testimony.
The Oscar-winning producer is being retried for offenses against two women: Jessica Mann, whom he is alleged to have raped; and Miriam Haley, whom he is alleged to have sexually assaulted.
He is also facing new charges of assaulting ex-model Kaja Sokola.
Judge Curtis Farber said jurors had requested to read back much of Mann’s testimony “starting with her going downstairs at the DoubleTree” hotel in Manhattan to meet Weinstein on March 18, 2013, when she says he raped her.
They also asked to revisit Mann’s medical notes when they reconvene for a fifth day on Wednesday.
Weinstein’s original 2020 conviction, and the resulting 23-year prison term, was thrown out last year after an appeals court found irregularities in the way witnesses were presented.
He denies the latest charges, and deliberations continue Wednesday.
