Harvey Weinstein, the former Hollywood mogul convicted of rape and sexual assault, is set to face a retrial in New York City. The highly anticipated proceedings are scheduled to begin on Tuesday with opening statements, marking a new chapter in the case that has captivated the nation. Weinstein, 71, was previously convicted in 2020 of two counts of predatory sexual assault, but a conviction for rape was overturned on appeal. This retrial will focus on the allegations of a single rape charge, which could potentially lead to a life sentence if convicted.
