Harvey Weinstein’s lawyers have insisted he is not using a Zimmer frame to win public sympathy, after he was photographed walking without one.

The disgraced film producer was filmed hunched over a four-legged walking frame as he slowly pushed himself into a courthouse in New York for a bail hearing on Wednesday.

The 67-year-old’s lawyer, Donna Rotunno, told CNN at the time that his legal team had encouraged him to use a walker ahead of a scheduled back surgery on Thursday.

She added: “Mr Weinstein didn’t want the press to think he was seeking sympathy.”

However on Thursday, pictures emerged of him walking unaided around a supermarket near his New York home.

According to the New York Post’s Page Six website, an undercover reporter spotted the former producer in the Target store in Mount Kisco with his family.

Was he “accidently” ramming his shopping cart into women’s carts, then offering to make them a star?

Now that is a funny video.
Imagine tossing the brief case in front of Nadler while he is napping.
Thanks.

Ok I get the picture and no one believed him anyway,

but “walking frame”?

Who says that? It’s a walker, yes? And it was a cheap one at that.

The Massachusetts State Police diver who pulled Mary Jo's body out of the Rosemobile said that he believes that she was probably alive for at least an hour after it entered the water.

The rich and powerful would never consider using props to save their bacon.

Wasn’t the neck brace from the alleged airplane crash? He should have given better instructions to his nephew about that.

Ohhhhhh......... And yet, as much Brit Box as I watch I’ve never heard a walker called a frame.

Thanks for the English lesson :)
