Harvey Weinstein’s frequently delayed sexual assault trial will finally begin, after months of being pushed back, in January 2020. Despite attempts by his lawyers to get the trial moved out of Manhattan, specifically to Long Island’s Suffolk County or to Albany, the state Supreme Court has decided it will stay in Manhattan, the Associated Press reports.
