LATEST: Within the first hour of deliberations, the Weinstein jury sent a note to the judge asking for legal clarification of charges, blueprint of apartment.
"No, I have not," she said,"because I would never put myself in that position."
Weinstein is facing five felony counts of rape and sexual assault, based on the testimony of two complaining witnesses: former “Project Runway” production assistant Miriam 'Mimi' Haleyi -- who claims the Hollywood producer sexually assaulted her in 2006, and an accuser who claims Weinstein raped her in a Manhattan hotel suite in 2013. ABC News is not naming the rape accuser because she has never publicly identified herself.
Prosecutors portrayed the accusers in opening arguments as unsuspecting women who sought out professional opportunities but got more than they bargained for. Movie producer Harvey Weinstein departs his sexual assault trial at New York Criminal Court with his lawyer Donna Rotunno on February 14, 2020 in New York City.Hast outlined the accounts of numerous witnesses allegedly overpowered by Weinstein who -- nervous, upset and confused -- sometimes gave up the physical struggle against him and simply stopped resisting.
"What you are going to see throughout this trial is that they wanted to have it both ways," Cheronis said."You can't say, 'I'm afraid of this man, I can't get away from him,' and then reach out to him to see if he'll be in L.A. for your birthday."Prosecutors contended that the accusers were"tricked" into being alone with Weinstein, and then suddenly sexually assaulted.
