- On Thursday, a New York appeals court overturned disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction in the landmark #MeToo trial. The appeals court found that the judge prejudiced Weinstein with improper rulings. "Today was a great day for Americans," Harvey Weinstein’s defense attorney Arthur Aidala said exclusively on Law&Crime. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber and the ex-film mogul's second attorney Imran Ansari also spoke on the shocking development.

Money speaks. I would be in jail for life if I did what Harvey or Bill did.
That’s cuz u probably would have pled guilty just like most criminal defendants.
The problem if you’re not famous, the judge probably won’t even read your appeal
Nah. If he wasn't a scalp for the MeToo movement, he would never have been charged.
I hope Harvey will be free soon. The idea of Weinstein flirting clinging to his stroller is simply hilarious
@@chrisx2k6HW was a scapegoat for that invented movement! And a LOTTA of fame hungry women just pleasantly sat down on the casting 🛋️!
I hope R. Kelly doesn't hear about this. He'd definitely be hiring them.
What is Rkelly in jail for again?
@@lg_ada2695trespass after notice
I won’t be surprised if he does. First Cosby, then we heard OJ did it, now this, sends a terrible and powerful message that makes me want to puke.
He will
His pockets aren't as deep as Weinstein or Cosby's.
Keep him locked up!!!
So you say due process is wrong? OK, I hope you get denied due process and rot in jail 😂
I woke up in the wrong dimension again, going back to sleep now...
It sure does feel like we live in an upside down world these days.
This does not surprise me, people are getting away with everything these days especially if they have money
These women knew Exactly what they was doing. They was adults
He did not get away.... maybe he is really innocent
@@300sl5l agree with you here my friend
Or maybe those ladies are bitter Betty's who didn't get the movie career or cash out he promised and a judge with an agenda let them besmirch his character to score a conviction.
Money bought him justice, that's it.
No, improper court proceedings left to this.
Well Trump have money and still pay 80 million to fake allegation. Weinstein is a jew so he get upperhand
How many Zionists have to get away with things like this before you see it's well beyond money.
Rich people are the only ones able to push the law to its limits. By doing so, they are able to create precedents that make it easier for the less wealthy to protect themselves when confronted with criminal prosecution. We need the rich people to do the hard work for us!
@@valiantcustomcleaning5743 This particular case has nothing to do with being rich.
So... The overturning was based on improper court proceedings. Not his innocence.
Really? that's what you got from this? Because of a unfair trial he was found guilty. He could be innocent which is why he gets another trial now. It is very hard to get a winning appeal so the fact he did means he could be innocent.
@@1k20a The last 4 words you wrote bolster my original comment.
@@1k20almao. Just bc something was overturned does not speak of actual “innocence”. Just saying. Unfair trial and actual innocence are 2 different things. You know how many ppl have been 100% guilty but due to improper court proceedings were let go? Just bc something is overturned does not always speak to their actual innocence.
@@Ghetto-toaster22 It shows they didn't have great evidence if they needed to bring in prior bad acts that were non-criminal
@@Ghetto-toaster22 Courts don’t deal in “innocence”, they deal in proving guilt. This had EVERYTHING to do with proving guilt, and since the law presumes people innocent until proven guilty, it has everything to do with “innocence”.
He must have dirt on some powerful people
Don't be ridiculous! HW was a scapegoat after PGate came out!!! And he rots for years now .... Behind bars! If so ...he'd be out from jail long ago...
Next week he will be walking without the walker. No doubt . That creep really did pay 💰 his way out of this. I cannot believe this!!!!
He will still get convicted in the retrial, they only got it overturned on technicalities despite what his lawyer is claiming, it has everything to do with allowing those other people to offer evidence
Then what is Asia Argento?
This is a crime against the victims.
Didn’t this also happen with Bill Cosby ??? 😮
Sure did. They brought in a bunch of ladies with unsubstantiated claims to make claims against him like Janice Dickinson who already admitted in the first trial she made up her accusations against him. Cosby was freed largely because they used his civil trial deposition testimony against him in a criminal trial and that violated his 5th amendment rights.
But Cosby was innocent
@@rev.jonathanwint6038 Oh, honey..........
Cosby read prosecuted with info that want allowed to be used against him because his victims chose money over justice.
WHAAT???😳😳
So another power$$ful SA gets off, go figure. These judges need to be checked every year.
He still has to serve 16 years in California. He is appealing that too.
It's one thing to talk about technicalities but disgusting to hear them speak of his innocence!! DISGUSTING 🐖!!! Special place waiting for him!!
Special place waiting for the liars who falsely accused him and others.
No one is ever found "innocent" by a judge or in court. They are presumed innocent until PROVEN otherwise as guilty or not guilty. If original trial admitted testimony it shouldn't have, there is nothing to stop a retrial I assume?
@@multioptioned Well, the accusers would need to agree to it, that’s the only thing that might stop it.
What a slap in the face to his victims it's disgusting how this judges sleep at night is beyond me
So the Judge should break the law, to satisfy YOUR justice.
@@timestorm0 do you know how to comprehend a single legible sentence?
You might want to try again a little slower, put on your glasses, enable your reader, put down the drink, sober up, etc.🧐⚖️
*participants. Not victims
@@genericamerican7574 why do you dislike freedom?
This is a disgrace, should NOT have been over turned. Re-try him.
Nah
He deserves to be locked away for the rest of his life
None of us should want mistakes made at trial. Unfortunately, this takes money and most don't have it for this high powered team.
It wasn’t a mistake, it was them using improper evidence to get a conviction because they didn’t have anything that proved beyond a reasonable doubt.
@@travispratt6327 I am referring to the mistake the judge made in allowing this testimony.
Unbelievable. WTF?
What a crock of BS
Just like Bill Cosby! The original judge was unreasonable
That's Oprah's best friend. The FEDS need to pick it up!
Right? Oprah and the gang are up top their eyeballs in all of it. So much coverup for the sickos of the world!!😮
To
why are these people happy bou this???? shame on these lawyers. its one thing to get your way and one thing to have the decency to not show it all happily because the victims are watching all this.
I agree and of all months for this to happen...
Did you REALLY just congratulate them??? Wow.....
I stopped watching after he congratulated the lawyers!
Justice for the Victims
Harvey was the victim. So, yes.
@@Peace2humankindlol tell another one, a funny one this time
The judge shouldn’t let witnesses testify about things not involving why they’re there. That’s why he got off, the judge shouldn’t let just anything go and have fair ruling. No matter who you are
As a woman, I unfortunately support his release. We have had five fake accusers in my country, so I don't believe women anymore
Nobody fn cares what you think
I'm glad it got overturned. Those women knew what they were getting into. Come on! They never heard about the casting couch?? That's a joke!
Very legal conclusion
@@supriseimblack nobody cares about you
The fact that one of the lawyers tries to present Harvey as the victim because 7 women spoke out against his actions in the case, turning it from "he said, she said" into "he said, she said (x7)" just shows the kind of mental gymnastics these people go through to justify their position. Appalling. [context: 06:13]
Praying for those poor victims you would be surprised of the names of those in the background that's trying to help him get free.
I agree with you here l fell şad for them l hope they Will be ok
*participants
Is it a coincidence all the steinsss are grapists ? I don’t think.
This is disgusting!
This is the original judge's fault. If they did everything by the book like they were supposed to, this guy would not be getting exonerated. No, instead they let the hype of the me too movement of the time sway their actions. Realistically he would still have been convicted without it. Imo.
It should have been thrown out and retried.
Well legal experts at that time always felt that the case was on shaky grounds.
Its the original judge and the prosecution fault that they broke some fundamental rules. They should have done everything by the books.
Thankfully he still has a separate 16 year sentence to serve 😊
That will be overturned as well, pretty soon. This decision is a huge precedent.
@@Peace2humankind why. The other case was a different judge in a different state. It wasn’t run the same was. There’s no president because it was already wrong procedurally. It just had to go through the appeals process to show the evidence of the already established precedent that overturned the case. Purely based on how the specific judge allowed improper evidence and testimony in this case.
Well people were paid off
He is quilty! There is another case that found him guilty.
How do you not get this right the first time. It’s obvious the judge handling the case should not be a feminist because of bias.
Wow, unreal.
He is so beyond guilty! He should rot in prison.
If the law doesn’t stop protecting criminals then the justice will be served outside of it by citizens who are fed up. Keep playing
Go read the 5th and 6th Amendment. Then read the entire Constitution.
The law’s job is to protect ’the accused’ or suspects; defendants; and people charged with crimes...
You don't have any rights you're not entitled to any rights until you've been accused of a crime
As a SA victim, this truly hurts. As a woman this really hurts. As a human, I am shocked but not surprised. I bet he smells the way he looks.
Gotta throw ur "victimhood" out there huh?
@@jack.6956a boy in third grade looked at her the wrong way and she never been the same since😂
@@jack.6956Wow, issues much?
@@jack.6956 These troubled "victims" don't realize that what they'll saying when they say something like this is "because of my own experiences I am extremely bias and clouded and can't be fair and reasonable."
You have a lot of folks victim-shaming in your comments. Attacking people who have lived through a similar experience!! I place them right in the same cell as Harvey!! Enablers!
Now the justice system needs to correct Derek Chauvin's conviction, along with the other defendants in that case.
Exactly !!
Call Oprah for an interview...
As a subscriber and long time viewer I never expected law and crime to say they agreed with overturning Cosby or Weinsteins cases. I'm appalled. Where was this sentiment when everything was happening then? You're only brave enough now to say so? I'll find a new true crime channel, you're a drop in an ocean.
Why is Jesse happy about this? I'm not getting it.
From what I take away- I am not sure he is happy about it (per se). He says he was in court every day of this trial and that he took issue with the manor in which the judge handled important acts of the case.
@@DigitalAndInnovation still doesn’t explain how giddy he is about it.
jew.
Greedy self centered misandry is overturned? No Kidding? Well then...
I can’t with the Walker 😭
I'm a Republican, and I'm a woman, and I'm infuriated. That sicko might not have been friends with John Wayne Gacy, but he abused children too; he abused Corey Haim. When Corey Haim said that Harvey Weinstein abused him, nobody believed him, and that sicko said that he made it up. Corey Haim might not be alone, but he has to serve the most painful life sentence because his abuser is free. Corey, if you're reading this, I support you and I believe you.
Corey Haim is no longer alive. He died back in 2010
Hopefully you have the same energy when Diddys ruling gets overturned
This is disgusting.
WTF?? He needs to be LOCKED UP!
What the f? You know hes guilty yall in his poket lol this was probably pre scripted
Justice is lacking in this country, specifically in this case, how many women were victimized by this despicable man.
How many money grubbing self centered women were trying to sleep their way to the top? Is that what you mean to say? I dont understand what you are trying to say...
@@honolulubiketoursAnd what about the women that turned him down, but he RA**D them anyway? 🙄
There was never any justice in courts of law.
@@honolulubiketoursfound the grapist
I just don’t understand what is going on here. There should be certain administrative procedures that are excluded from overturning a conviction.
There should be common sense
You must be 12
It's highly likely that they willingly slept with him to advance their careers.
There will never be accountability from the women who sold their body in exchange for accolades.The justice system and media will protect their image of "purity". People have to figure it out from the prices they won unfairly. "Shakespeare in love"; winning the Best Picture Oscar was clearly a result of rigging and possibly bribes as well.
“My friend justice Scalia” thats all he wanted to get out there. His ego makes it so he can’t help himself.
He must be retried.
So many people in the comments, and even Jessie seem to want it to be any time a woman yells “J’accuse!” the persons automatically guilty until proven innocent… it’s like they have no idea how our courts, laws and precedent work, nor lessons in history of why that’s a bad idea.
Victims are also entitled to a fair trail with a fair outcome despite technicalities.
They are not entitled to a fair trial! That is a delusional idea. The only person that has rights is the accused. Next time read your Constitution. It's called the 5th and 6th Amendment...
Hes lizard sporn
This jew really congratulated the lawyers on successfully helping a criminal grapist back into society😅 nice one 👌
Weber is a German name...
this was done quite silently.
This is a sad day !!! Because of a judge these women didn't get justice😢
It’s all the same giooouuu males that run the west. No surprise here.
Congratulations? Wtf?
Hahahahahahha this comment !
Money talks!
I bet you, dollars to donuts, that the judge was sloppy, just to get him off. Like a pitcher, a QB, throwing a game. Masonic justice anyone?
Will he get out of prison just asking
Free Harvey t shirts,come and get em....on the back they say No means Yes!😂😂
You’re misleading your viewers by calling this a mere “technical error” and saying things like “it’s not like exonerating evidence came out”… you’re painting the picture it has nothing to do with his guilt or innocence, when it’s absolutely about how they went about proving his guilt. It plays to misconceptions about how courts work and presumption of innocence and found guilty vs found not guilty ect. I’d expect more from a legal channel analysis.
Is it simply a coincidence that all the steins and bergs are all grapists? 🤔 I don’t think
What about the Goodman’s and the Zuckerberg?
I hope Harvey will be free soon. The idea of Weinstein flirting clinging to his stroller is simply hilarious
He congratulated them you guys😅 I guess he’s another stein/man/ berg. Same with the “judge”
We know one hand washes the other... Even if it is a CESSPOOL... These people do these plays everyday and know what the rules are...So, to say there were mistakes or some incompetence is just to satisfy the public records. Period. This was a not-so-SLIGHT-OF-HAND tactic.
Rules are Rules!
Oh well going by the look of him, he’s going to have a nurse and carer to choose from in the future 😂😂😂😂😂
Disgusting
Harvey needs imprisonment for life!!!!
The fact remains the jury didn’t believe most of his accusers, which means they agreed it was all consensual relationships
Sometimes a monster is blamed for crimes they didn't do.... oh well!
That’s not what happened at all. SMH🤦♂️
So is he getting out of prison?
?
It’s pending
No, he still has a 16-year conviction in California. New York will probably re-try him.
Yes and LA conviction is being looked into and overturned.
He will be out in like 6 years ..if that
I wonder if he’ll be making movies again .
Gosh, he really looks great doesn’t he?
"Today was a great day for Americans"... right...🙄🫤 Tell that to his victims. Should i feel sorry for him? I don't! I don't care that he walked into the courtroom with a walker. (I have a walker and I'm 30 yrs old) He should have stayed in prison or wherever the h*** he was!!!

Different type of case altogether. Nothing to do with the Weinstein case.
@@hilberryable nobody said it was.
@@vegan3650 So why bring up his name in this matter that is unrelated to him?
That’s right, the ones that attended the trial in that courtroom knew this trial was extremely unfair
Sleeze wins in America
Kudos to Weinstein
its a passover miracle!
Thanks to Weinstein and his awesome lawyers for fighting the fight, on behalf of Weinstein and all criminal defendants in NY
"Free Harvey Weinstein."
Congratulations to you ?? Ok
Is he totally out of jail now?
Nope
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
All this actresses are worse than him , real pro….t😮
