BREAKING: Harvey Weinstein Sentenced to Another 16 Years in Prison in LA Rape, Sexual Assault Case
Red State. ^ | February 23, 2023 | Becca Lower

Once considered one of the most powerful and unimpeachable producers in Hollywood, Harvey Weinstein learned he will now spend almost two more decades in prison, after the sentencing Thursday in a Los Angeles courtroom on rape and sexual assault charges. Weinstein is already serving time for convictions in New York.

...

A Los Angeles judge on Thursday sentenced Harvey Weinstein to 16 years in prison after a jury convicted him of the 2013 rape and sexual assault of an Italian actor and model.

The sentence comes on top of the more than 20 years the 70-year-old Weinstein has left to serve for a similar 2020 conviction in New York, furthering the fall of the onetime movie magnate who became a #MeToo magnet.

But his ESG score and EIG ratings are stellar. So he’s one of our cultural role models.

Cal AG named Harris ignored his crimes, took money from him.

She sank into obscurity, and no longer does anything important at all.

“So he’ll be 106. Should be fairly harmless by then.”

By then he’ll be comfortable in his role as the “prey,” as there are some bubbas in prison waiting to introduce him to “prison pleasure.”

He’s going to learn what a real “Casting Couch” is.

Who - in Dirty Harvey’s world - would ever believe that the casting couch would become the crime scene ?

Hillary Clinton took more cash from convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein than any other Democrat.

I guess it didn’t work to use a walker with someone holding his arm and stoop over as the kindly old man who jurors would see couldn’t hurt a fly.

Hollywood Reporter, Jan.16, 2020 began:
Is Harvey Weinstein really in pain? Or is that $30 walker (with tennis balls, no less) he’s been sporting at his sex crimes trial a courtroom prop designed to elicit sympathy?

Photo showed him clinging to the hand rail to pull himself up the steps and an aide holding his walker for later.

Harvey was the nerdy kid in high school that all the pretty girls wouldn’t give a second look. When he got power in Hollywood and was surrounded by pretty girls, many of whom would do anything to get into the movies, he took his revenge and opportunities. There have been, are, and always will be many other guys like him in the entertainment business.

How is that “Me too” movement working out for the left.

They created it to go after conservatives but it seems most caught up in it have been Democrats.

They only found out they were "raped" after they didn't get the role. Before that, they considered it a business arrangement.

He was a known pervert for many years, yet remained popular, powerful, and untouchable.

Finally, someone/somewhere decided he was no longer useful, and used his catalogue of crimes to bring him down.

Like Andrew Cuomo, I wonder what exactly it was that did him in?

Meryl Streep stood up & cheered convicted child rapist, director Roman Polanski..

Cindy McCain: We all knew about rapist Epstein. We all knew what he was doing..

George Clooney and Matt Damon both, now, admit that they knew Harvey Weinstein was sexual Predator…
