NEW YORK - Jury selection begins on Tuesday in the rape trial in New York of Harvey Weinstein, once one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers. He has pleaded not guilty to charges of rape and criminal sexual assault.More than 80 women have publicly accused Weinstein, 67, of sexual misconduct, helping to fuel the #MeToo movement over the last two years. The criminal charges against him refer to just three accusers.

Prosecutors have accused Weinstein of raping another woman in March 2013 in Manhattan. She has not been publicly identified.Weinstein is charged with a criminal sexual act in the first degree against Haleyi, and with rape for the 2013 allegation. He is charged with predatory sexual assault over both allegations.

Prosecutors may also call three other women to testify about encounters with Weinstein, even though he is not formally charged with crimes against them. Their testimony is intended to bolster the charges by showing that Weinstein had a consistent pattern of behavior.

Weinstein must have picked up the late AlanBond’s trial playbook (How To Appear Frail & Ill While On Trial) at a clearance sale. I wonder if he also managed to get Bondy’s companion publication, “Perform A Miracle Return To Full Health”.

How long is this going to go on? Jeez a reg person would have been locked up by now

Let me guess, tales of a complete and utter sleaze?

I don't want to see his face. Nobody wants to see his face. Stop giving this monster a face

If it ends any other way than him hanging by his balls from the ceiling I’m going to be massively disappointed
