On Wednesday (April 16, 2025), on the second day of jury selection in Harvey Wenstein’s Me To Rape Rape Rape Rape Rape Rape Rape.
At the same time, lawyers from humiliated film Mogul asked a judge to allow his nights to spend their nights instead of jail for a trial period, cited several health issues, including cancer and problems, which require wheelchair use and need to exit in court.
The gamblers – five women and four men – were selected from a group of 25 potential gamblers who had spent the last two days to answer questions from prosecutors and Venstein’s lawyers, so that their ability to be fair. They are the first gamblers selected after being selected on Tuesday.
The jury selection will resume on Thursday (April 17), with a new group of about 80 future gamblers to start the screening process. Judge Curtis Farber has said that a total of 12 gamblers and six options will be selected.
The prosecution and rescue on Wednesday used seven of their 15 perpetratory challenges to reject potential gamblers, leading to eight to eight per side.
Two other candidates were removed from the idea by the judge. One expressed disappointment about the justice system and complained that rich people avoid the ability to misinformed. Another initially indicated that he could be fair but then returned to court and said he could not think he could do it.
“The defense counsel asked my response to the defendant’s name and the first word in my head was ‘pig’,” said the man, who works as an investment banker. “And I apologize, but I feel a great sense of responsibility as a citizen and I take this stuff seriously.”
73 -year -old Venstein has requested not to be guilty and refused to rape or sexually assault someone.
He bowed back to his wheelchair, agreeing to future gamblers, because he answered questions that touched everything from their impression of #MeToo-a movement arose from the score of allegations against the East-Studio boss in 2017-what they like to do in his free time.
A accounting advisor rejected by the prosecution stated that he had “negative feelings” about the movement as his high school classmates were incorrectly accused of sexual harassment. A lawyer who works in cryptocurrency compliance said that #MeToo has resulted in “not enough”. He was rejected in favor of Venstein.
Demanding to move Vensteten for the test, his lawyers argued that his migration in the notorious Ricors Island Jail Complex in the city is increasing his health issues and he would be better in the jail ward at Belvue Hospital in Manhattan. Venstein has been back and forth several times for the Belview in recent months for the treatment of various distortions.
The Oscar winning manufacturer has several health conditions, including chronic myeloid leukemia, heart issues, diabetes, sleep apnea and sciatica. His lawyer Imran Ansari said that recently the tongue infection was incorrectly introduced into Recurs, causing Venstein to be hospitalized, and has obtained about 20 pounds (9 kg) in the last month.
Wensteten lawyers filed a legal claim against the city in November, alleging that he was receiving substandard medical treatment under unnatural conditions in Recurs. The claim, which demands $ 5 million in loss, argues that Winstein has been returned to Recners every time before the hospital recovers completely.
Ansari said in a statement on Wednesday, “Due to this misconduct, he is worn quite intelligent, and now faces testing stress in this situation, which can cause very well health complications, even death.”
Recners have faced an increasing investigation to misconduct prisoners and dangerous conditions. Last year, a judge cleared the way for a possible federal acquisition, in the “unconstitutional threat” to find prisoners.
Farber has not yet been ruled by the transfer request, and the issue was not discussed in court on Wednesday.
The New York’s Supreme Court is trying to re -attempts for 2020 sentence and 23 -year -old jail sentence last year, it was found that their case was fired with unfair governance and prejudicial testimony.
He is being brought back on two allegations. He has accused him of raping an aspiring actor in a Manhattan hotel room in 2013 and raping a criminal sex act in 2006 by forcing a film and TV production assistant to force oral sex.
He has also been accused of another count of the Criminal Sexual Act based on a woman’s charge which was not part of the original test. The woman, who has not publicly nominated, alleges that Winstein forced her oral sex at the Manhattan Hotel.
