Disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein has been indicted on additional sex crimes charges in New York, as announced by Manhattan prosecutors during a hearing on Thursday. The indictment, which will remain sealed until Weinstein's arraignment on September 18, comes as the 72-year-old is recovering from emergency heart surgery at a Manhattan hospital following a procedure on Monday.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office revealed that evidence of up to three additional allegations against Weinstein, dating back to the mid-2000s, has been presented to a grand jury. This development follows Weinstein's 2020 conviction on rape and sexual assault charges being overturned by an appeals court earlier this year.
