Admitedly rape is difficult to prove, but I read the transcripts of the testimony and it seemed compelling to me. I'm completely surprised that the jury is deadlocked.

Just a completely objective viewpoint here, without physical and/or forensic evidence most juries are going to be reluctant to conclude a guilty verdict for those most severe charges that they know will likely result in a life sentence. That's a common scenario.

Dangerous to allow a numbers game with pretty sketchy at best claims decide whether you go to prison for life or not

He is a scumbag that got chicks to frick him for roles

They wanted the roles and willingly fricked him

20 years later they are sad that they didnt get what they wanted

No way I should care at all. No victims there. Only opportunists.

What testimony made you convinced he was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?

Another article said that the two charges they are deadlocked on are dependent on being found guilty on one of the other three he is charged with. So, sounds like he is going down on at least one, probably three.

Plus, jury may throw the other two in after further deliberation on what a POS he is.

The only shock is that there's a deadlocked.


At least it is not a hung jury.

That why unanimous juries can be a burden to the judicial system. All it takes is one juror and the perp gets to walk free, or they will get to try the case again and again until you get 12 jurors to agree.

the cases they brought forward seem more like people regretting they fricked him because they didn’t get enough of a career boost for it.

So, a prostitute trading her arse for bit parts in movies is now rape?

I detest Harvey Weinstein. He was a major Obama bundler.

However, the Hollywood whores knew exactly what they were doing.

real simple, its not rape if you negotiated a reward for sex acts, its prostitution and the one who isnt named harvey is the criminal who broke the law and should be in jail

I'd never heard of forcible oral rape until this case. So this woman claims that little fat deformed Harvey threw her down on the bed, knelt down in front of her, and started in on her tulip. Did she crawl away? No. Did she snap her legs shut around his neck to choke him? No. Did she kick him in the face? No. She did text him wassup the next day though
