Harvey Weinstein Sentenced to 15 Years in Prison for Abuse of Production Assistant
Former film producer Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for the sexual abuse of his former production assistant, Miriam Haley. The sentence follows a retrial in which a jury found him guilty of forcing Haley to perform oral sex in 2006; his previous 23-year sentence had been overturned on appeal in 2024. Weinstein, 74, faces additional legal proceedings in California regarding the rape and abuse of an actress in 2013, while a separate case involving actress Jessica Mann was dropped by prosecutors after three failed attempts to prosecute.
