Weinstein found guilty of sexual assault

NEW YORK: Disgraced Hollywood titan Harvey Weinstein was found guilty of one sexual assault on Wednesday and not guilty of another, with jurors still considering a rape charge at his retrial at which three women recounted in graphic detail how he victimised them.

Weinstein was retried for offenses against two women, Jessica Mann whom he is alleged to have raped, and Miriam Haley whom he was found to have sexually assaulted, alongside new charges of assaulting ex-model Kaja Sokola.

He was found not guilty of those new charges at the tense proceeding in a Manhattan court on Wednesday.
