Harvey Weinstein found guilty of rape, criminal sexual act

A New York jury on Monday found Harvey Weinstein guilty of third-degree rape and a first-degree criminal sexual act, ending a months-long criminal trial in Manhattan that focused on the testimonies of six women who accused him of sexual assault.

The disgraced Hollywood mogul was immediately taken into custody and could face up to 29 years in prison for the crimes when he is sentenced on March 11. An appeal is expected.

However, the panel found him not guilty of two of the most serious charges — predatory sexual assault on two women and first-degree rape of another.
