Lawyers in Harvey Weinstein's rape trial will begin selecting jurors on Tue...

NEW YORK - Lawyers in Harvey Weinstein’s rape trial will begin selecting jurors on Tuesday, a challenging process in the wake of the #MeToo movement and fresh sex crime charges brought against the former film producer.

Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty to charges of assaulting two women in New York. He faces life in prison if convicted on the most serious charge, predatory sexual assault. A second phase of selection, in which a final jury of 12 will be picked, is expected to begin a week later, though Judge James Burke has called that date “optimistic.”

Allegations against Weinstein first were reported in the New York Times and The New Yorker magazine in October 2017.

Harvey acting the victim. Rich!

Arrogance and hubris bring down the priviledged

Suffering from blue balls I believe, the poor guy hasn't had access to up and coming starlets in 7 months 😔

“And the Best Actor in a sexual assault trial, proceeding or incarceration goes to...” harveyweinsteintrial HarveyWeinstein

THIS MF Rollin' out in a WALKER!

Looks like he is slowly dying. I hope he has to spend all of his last days and money defending his horrendous lifestyle in court.

Is the Walker a ploy for Sympathy?

Harvey, Jeffery, Roman & Woody all favorites among the media & Hollywood crowd until their particular perversion became out of vogue - hopefully other sick behaviors as abortion, men/men sex men/girl bathrooms they embrace will have a similar fate

He will get away with it. He has been photographed with and without the walker. The walker could be a play for sympathy.

Weinstein rolling in on his pathetic prop in a ridiculous defense strategy. Like jodiarias and MarissaDevault with fake glasses.

Use this pic. Don't forget to credit the photographer.

He’s so f’ed.

he's in a walker now?! How manipulative and pathetic. Just like Bill Cosby. Someone kick his legs from beneath him for me -

That fucking walker.. what a joke

Boris Johnson has aged since his last appearance in Parliament. ...

Well, when the 'behavior' was going on, he was strutting his stuff. This walker should fool no one.

Cohen, Manafort, and now Weinstein all suddenly become infirmed when going to trial. COMICAL! Who do they think is falling for this?

Somebody rip that walker away and let’s see how good of an actor he is. Would he be willing to literally bash his face into the ground?

'More than 80 women have accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct dating back decades.' Flash forward a few years and we'll be seeing the same lines associated with TreasonousTrump, PredatorInChief.

Hey Reuters, change that to an image of the victims.

Justice ⚖️ Inquisition, the hour has struck! Jury selection in Harvey Weinstein rape trial begins in wake of new charges.

Another shit show, why is he not behind bars instead of Zimmer frame?!

Pathetic jam acting

That sympathy walker won’t garner any sympathy from the jury, it just makes him look even more pathetic

widok niespecjalny jak na byłego bossa

The walker is just a prop. It’s what mob bosses would do...get wheeled into court in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank...to try to garner sympathy for the infirm old man. It’s bullshit and hopefully the prosecutor will point that out.

No cervical collar?

Is he that tired of all the raping?

Hopefully justice actually gets served against a rich & powerful sexual predator for once instead of a slap on the wrist or settling out of court.

They all get sick when they got caught.

He looks so pretty. 🤢

So I wonder if Weinstein knew then what he’d be held accountable for now, if he’d do it all over again. He’s a pitiful human being today; he’ll die as the same.

Cut. Go again, stoop more and.....action!

Tell him to keep the frame for moving round jail

Motherf***er playing the victim for all it's worth!! 😰

Harvey gets the Zimmer frame out for sympathy.

TnxPOTUS4Soleimani IraniansDetestSoleimani

He thought he could get away w/it...just look at his deterioration!!😂 A scared pig. 🙌👏🙌😎

Does he really need a walker, or is that just for sympathy?

The walker is a prop.
