Judge James Burke thanked the Harvey Weinstein jury for their service: 'Thank you for the care and concentration, concern and attention you have given to your deliberations'
The former movie mogul has been convicted in his New York sexual assault trial.
Weinstein has been convicted of criminal sexual assault in the first degree, based on the testimony of formerproduction assistant Miriam Haley, and rape in the third degree, based on the testimony of one-time aspiring actress Jessica Mann. Weinstein will be sentenced at a later date. He's facing five to 25 years for the criminal sexual assault conviction and 18 months to four years for the third-degree rape conviction. Judge James Burke thanked the jury for their service. "Thank you for the care and concentration, concern and attention you have given to your deliberations," he said. "You are now dismissed. You may leave the court room.
While Weinstein's lawyers said on Friday they would accept a partial verdict, the lead prosecutor said she would not, and Judge James Burke told the jury to "continue your deliberations."
