Weinstein sentenced to 15 years after retrial conviction
Harvey Weinstein has been resentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting a former production assistant in 2006. His earlier 23-year sentence was overturned on appeal in 2024, after which a New York jury found him guilty again in a 2025 retrial, according to Channels Television.
Harvey Weinstein has been resentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting a former production assistant in 2006, Channels Television reported. The sentence follows a retrial in New York. A jury found Weinstein guilty again in 2025 after his original conviction was overturned on appeal in 2024.
Weinstein had initially been sentenced in 2020 to 23 years in prison for assaulting Miriam Haley. The available report does not provide the grounds cited by the appeal court for overturning that conviction, or explain how the later proceedings differed from the original case. The former film producer became a central figure in abuse allegations that helped spur the MeToo movement in Hollywood.
The supplied material describes him as having faced allegations of abuse but gives no details of the wider cases or the number of people involved. The new 15-year sentence relates to the 2006 sexual assault described in the report. Channels Television said Weinstein was resentenced on Wednesday and indicated that further information would follow.
The material does not include a statement from Weinstein, his lawyers, the prosecution or the victim about the latest sentence.
