Full disclosure: I didn’t read the article; however, some weeks back, I found a podcast that I found interesting on the subject. I’ll be curious to see if Farrow updates it with info from the trial. The podcast really exposes what a horrible man Weinstein was/is & how he got away with his crimes for so long. Weinstein is now pulling out the “I’ve become sick/feeble, pity me” card. He’s been in court using a walker & looking terrible ... expect him to be in a wheelchair before it’s all over.

The Catch and Kill Podcast with Ronan Farrow
https://podcastrepublic.net/podcast/1487730212

Description from the link:
For the past two years, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Ronan Farrow has been following a trail of clues from his investigation of Harvey Weinstein to other blockbuster stories about the systems that protect powerful men accused of terrible crimes in Hollywood, Washington, and beyond. But he didn’t bring that information to light on his own. A compelling cast of sources—from brave whistleblowers to shadowy undercover operatives—decided the fate of these investigations, sometimes risking everything in the process. The Catch and Kill Podcast brings you their stories, in their own words, for the first time.

“He’ll skate. There’s no evidence.”

Harvey is the scape goat and he knows it. Thus the play acting with the cane and walker.
He knows he’s going to jail he’s just trying to minimize the damage.

I remember seeing him in his bathrobe on the streets walking around , muttering gibberish..

I guess if he&lawyers is successful with the medical condition and deteriorating health angle, he won’t get to milk the cows at Lompoc, which is the closest he should ever get to a teat in this life.

I think he’s facing state charges in NY. He can produce training films for the prison and get sex from inmates for starring. Certainly in his wheelhouse.
