New York court overturns Harvey Weinstein's rape conviction

Season 2024 Episode 117 | 5m 56s

New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, a stunning reversal in the landmark case of the #MeToo movement. The court said the judge's decision to allow witnesses to claim Weinstein assaulted them, but not include those allegations in the charges, precluded Weinstein from having a fair trial. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Jodi Kantor of The New York Times.
