哈维·韦恩斯坦性犯罪重审达成分歧裁决

2025-06-12 10:33 -ABC  -  465405

  哈维·韦恩斯坦被判一项参与犯罪性行为的罪名成立,但在他的第二项指控中被判无罪性犯罪重审在纽约。

  曼哈顿陪审团无法就第三项强奸罪做出裁决。法官当天解散了陪审员,但指示他们周四继续审议这一指控。

  在审议过程中,陪审团出现了一些明显的分歧,导致了分歧的裁决。

  周三早些时候,陪审团主席发了一张纸条告诉法官柯蒂斯·法伯,他“不能和那些人一起回去。”根据一份文字记录,在一次闭门谈话后,首席检察官向法官抱怨说,陪审员们在互相“攻击”并打架,还说,“我不喜欢这样”。

  在没有陪审团在场的情况下,温斯坦周三向法官发表讲话,抱怨陪审团的行为剥夺了他获得公平审判的权利。

  “我们听到了威胁,我们听到了争斗,我们听到了恐吓,”温斯坦说。“这对我这个在这里受审的人来说是不合适的。”

  法伯提出了一个冷静期,然后陪审团回来说,他们已经对这两项指控作出了裁决。

  在周三解散陪审团时,法伯提醒陪审员要相互尊重。

  温斯坦因性侵两名女性咪咪·哈利和杰西卡·曼而被重审,此前他被判有罪上诉被推翻。他还被指控对第三名女性卡贾·索科拉进行性侵犯,她没有参与第一次审判。

  陪审团判定温斯坦与海利发生了性犯罪行为,但宣告他与索科拉发生性犯罪行为的罪名不成立。

  陪审团将于周四继续审议曼恩的强奸指控。

  73岁的温斯坦不认罪,并表示他的性接触是双方自愿的。他在审判中没有作证。

  这三名女性在审判期间都公开站出来作证。

  在分裂的判决之后,哈利感谢了陪审员,她说他们“看穿了被告的胡说八道和滑稽动作”。

  她说:“面对不断的干扰、受害者的羞辱和蓄意歪曲事实的企图作证令人疲惫不堪,有时甚至失去人性。”。“但今天的判决给了我希望——希望人们对性暴力有了新的认识,完美受害者的神话正在消失。”

  “我希望这一结果能够让其他人站出来寻求正义,”她补充道。

  索科拉告诉记者,她对判决感到高兴,并为其他作证的女性感到骄傲。

  “对我们所有人来说,重温我们的创伤并在公开法庭上经历它是一个极其艰难的旅程,”索科拉说。“这对每个人来说都是一个巨大的胜利。哈维·韦恩斯坦会进监狱的。”

  “对我自己来说,这是给我一生带来很多痛苦的一章的结束,”她补充道。

  她的律师Lindsay Goldbrum说,这一判决“是走向正义的一步,即使它不是完整的一步。”

  2017年发表的对温斯坦的性骚扰和性侵犯指控镀锌的#MeToo运动。判决后,海利的律师格洛丽亚·奥尔雷德(Gloria Allred)周三告诉记者,“对于那些预测#MeToo运动可能会死亡的媒体人来说,讣告显然为时过早。”

  陪审团仍在权衡强奸罪,曼恩在周三的一份声明中说,她“揭露了我的创伤”,并“站起来说出了真相”。一次又一次。”

  她说,“我绝不会在强奸问题上撒谎,也不会用如此伤人的事情来伤害别人。”。

  检察官表示,温斯坦“掠夺了三名女性”,因为“他在好莱坞拥有不受约束的权力超过30年”,而辩方反驳说,制片人没有胁迫这些女性,并声称她们利用他的关系。

  “哈维·韦恩斯坦对从事电视和电影工作的人有很大的控制权。他决定谁进谁出,”检察官香农·露西(Shannon Lucey)在审判开始时告诉由7名女性和5名男性组成的陪审团。”他握着金奖券。成功或失败的机会。”

  露西声称“不”不是“被告习惯听到的一个词。”

  温斯坦的辩护律师阿瑟·艾达拉同意检察官的说法,即温斯坦在电视和电影行业是一个有影响力的人,但他告诉陪审团,温斯坦没有胁迫他被指控袭击的女性。相反,艾达拉声称温斯坦参与了“互利关系”,律师说这种关系在好莱坞已经持续了一百年。

  “他们是自愿和他鬼混的,”艾达拉声称。"选角沙发不是犯罪现场。"

  在详述指控的性侵犯时,露西声称,当哈利在2006年7月去温斯坦的克罗斯比街公寓讨论《天桥骄子》的制作角色时,他“按住了她”,并对她实施了强迫性行为。

  2002年,索科拉在西村的一家餐馆第一次见到温斯坦时才16岁,当时她刚签了一份模特合同,从波兰来到纽约。几年后的2006年,温斯坦让索科拉在《保姆日记》中担任临时演员。露西声称,那年在曼哈顿一家酒店的一次午餐后,温斯坦“用足够大的力量压在她的肩膀上,让她倒在床上”,并强迫19岁的她口交,因为她说,“请不要这样做”。

  露西还声称,温斯坦涉嫌在索科拉16岁时,在曼哈顿的一所公寓里强迫她触摸自己的生殖器。温斯坦在起诉书中没有被指控涉嫌2002年的事件,因为它超出了诉讼时效。但法官允许索科拉在审判期间就此作证,同时还允许她就发生在2004年的第二起涉及温斯坦的事件作证。索科拉之前曾在纽约根据《儿童受害者法案》就2002年的事件提起诉讼,检察官称该案件已经解决。

  据露西说,2013年,温斯坦涉嫌未经曼同意在一家酒店与她发生性关系。曼恩作证说,温斯坦在发现她有一个认真的男朋友是演员后强奸了她。露西声称,曼恩也曾与温斯坦发生性关系,这并非出于对他在该行业的权力的恐惧。

  新的审判在纽约上诉法院之后进行推翻温斯坦去年在2020年的最初定罪中发现,审判法官“错误地接受了对潜在犯罪的原告以外的人的未经指控的、所谓的先前性行为的证词。”

  温斯坦还2022年12月,他对性犯罪的定罪提出上诉在洛杉矶。他在那里被判16年监禁。

Split verdict reached in Harvey Weinstein sex crimes retrial

  Harvey Weinstein has been convicted on one count of engaging in criminal sex but acquitted on a second count in hissex crimes retrialin New York.

  The Manhattan jury was unable to reach a verdict on the third count of rape. The judge dismissed the jurors for the day but instructed them to keep deliberating on that count Thursday.

  The split verdict comes after some apparent discord in the jury room during deliberations.

  Earlier Wednesday, the jury foreperson sent a note telling Judge Curtis Farber he "cannot go back inside with those people." That followed a closed-door conversation during which the foreperson complained to the judge that the jurors were "attacking" one another and fighting -- adding, "I don't like it" -- according to a transcript.

  Without the jury present, Weinstein addressed the judge on Wednesday and complained that the jury behavior is depriving him of a fair trial.

  “We’ve heard threats, we’ve heard fights, we’ve heard intimidation,” Weinstein said. “This is not right for me, the person on trial here.”

  Farber had proposed a cooling-off period, then the jury came back in saying they had a verdict on the two counts.

  In dismissing the jury on Wednesday, Farber reminded jurors to be respectful to one another.

  Weinstein was being retried for sexually assaulting two women, Mimi Haley and Jessica Mann, after an earlier conviction wasoverturned on appeal. He is also charged with sexually assaulting a third woman, Kaja Sokola, who was not part of the first trial.

  The jury convicted Weinstein of engaging in a criminal sex act with Haley but acquitted him of engaging in a criminal sex act with Sokola.

  The jurors will resume deliberations on the rape count involving Mann on Thursday.

  Weinstein, 73, pleaded not guilty and has said his sexual encounters were consensual. He did not testify during the trial.

  All three women have publicly come forward and testified during the trial.

  Following the split verdict, Haley thanked the jurors, whom she said "saw through the nonsense and the antics" of the defense.

  "Testifying in the face of constant disruptions, victim shaming and deliberate attempts to distort the truth was exhausting and at times dehumanizing," she said. "But today's verdict gives me hope -- hope that there is new awareness around sexual violence and that the myth of the perfect victim is fading."

  "I hope that this result empowers others to speak out and seek justice," she added.

  Sokola told reporters she was happy with the verdict and proud of the other women who testified.

  "It was an extremely difficult journey for all of us to relive our traumas and to go through it in open court," Sokola said. "It's a big win for everyone. Harvey Weinstein will be in jail."

  "For myself, it's closing of a chapter that caused me a lot of pain throughout my life," she added.

  Her attorney, Lindsay Goldbrum, said the verdict "is a step towards justice, even if it's not a complete one."

  Sexual harassment and assault allegations against Weinstein published in 2017galvanizedthe #MeToo movement. Following the verdict, Haley's attorney, Gloria Allred, told reporters Wednesday, "For those of you in the press who have predicted that the #MeToo movement might be dead, that obituary was obviously premature."

  As jurors still weigh the rape count, Mann said in a statement Wednesday that she "laid bare my trauma" and "stood up and told the truth. Again and again."

  "I would never lie about rape or use something so traumatic to hurt someone," she said.

  Prosecutors said Weinstein "preyed on three women" as "he held unfettered power for over 30 years" in Hollywood, while the defense countered the producer did not coerce the women and claimed they were using him for his connections.

  "Harvey Weinstein had enormous control over those working in television and film. He decided who was in and who was out," the prosecutor, Shannon Lucey, told the jury of seven women and five men at the start of the trial. "He held the golden ticket. The chance to make it or not."

  Lucey claimed that "no" was "not a word the defendant was used to hearing."

  Weinstein's defense attorney, Arthur Aidala, agreed with prosecutors that Weinstein was a powerful man in the television and film industries, but he told the jury Weinstein did not coerce the women he's accused of assaulting. Instead, Aidala claimed Weinstein engaged in "mutually beneficial relationships" that the attorney said have been going on in Hollywood for a hundred years.

  "They're fooling around with him consensually," Aidala claimed. "The casting couch was not a crime scene."

  In detailing the alleged sexual assaults, Lucey claimed that when Haley went to Weinstein's Crosby Street apartment in July 2006 to discuss a production role on "Project Runway," he "held her down" and subjected her to forcible sexual conduct.

  Sokola was 16 when she first met Weinstein in 2002 at a restaurant in the West Village shortly after signing a modeling contract to come to New York from Poland. Several years later, in 2006, Weinstein cast Sokola as an extra in "The Nanny Diaries." After a lunch at a Manhattan hotel that year, Weinstein allegedly "pressed on her shoulders with enough force to get her down on the bed" and forced oral sex on the 19-year-old as she said, "Please do not do this," Lucey claimed.

  Lucey also claimed Weinstein allegedly forced Sokola to touch his genitals in a Manhattan apartment when she was 16. Weinstein is not charged in that alleged 2002 incident in the indictment, as it is outside the statute of limitations. But the judge allowed Sokola to testify about it during the trial, along with a second alleged incident involving Weinstein she says occurred in 2004. Sokola previously filed a lawsuit in New York under the Child Victims Act over the alleged 2002 incident, which prosecutors said has since been settled.

  In 2013, Weinstein allegedly subjected Mann to sex without her consent at a hotel, according to Lucey. Mann testified that Weinstein raped her after finding out she had a serious boyfriend who was an actor. Lucey claimed Mann had also engaged in sexual encounters with Weinstein that were not coerced out of fear of his power in the industry.

  The new trial comes after the New York Court of AppealsoverturnedWeinstein's initial 2020 conviction last year, finding the trial judge "erroneously admitted testimony of uncharged, alleged prior sexual acts against persons other than the complainants of the underlying crimes."

  Weinstein has alsoappealed his conviction in December 2022 on sex offensesin Los Angeles. He was sentenced to 16 years in prison there.
