Harvey Weinstein will be heading to prison after his sentencing hearing on Wednesday. The question before the judge is for how long.
The former movie producer will be sentenced to between five and 29 years for last month's convictions on first-degree criminal sexual act and third-degree rape. The charges were based on testimony in a New York courtroom by Miriam Haley and Jessica Mann, who are expected to speak at the sentencing. Weinstein was acquitted of two more serious charges of predatory sexual assault, which could have come with a life sentence.
He has denied all allegations of"nonconsensual sexual activity" related to the New York case and other claims made against him.Defense asks for 5 years in prisonThe Manhattan District Attorney's office argued in an 11-page court filing last week that Weinstein should receive a sentence that"reflects the seriousness of defendant's offenses.
