Weinstein jury remains undecided after 2nd day of deliberations
The jury in the rape and sexual assault case of Harvey Weinstein is still undecided after its second day of deliberations, and is asking to review testimony and emails involved in the case ABC News reports.
During Wednesday's deliberations, the jury asked to review emails between the disgraced movie mogul and accuser Miriam Haleyi, as well as communications between Weinstein and the security firms he hired to investigate his accusers, Deadline reports. Later, the jury requested to re-hear testimony from Rosie Perez, a friend of Weinstein accuser Annabelle Sciorra, before it was dismissed for the day.
Weinstein is charged with sexually assaulting Haleyi in 2006 and with raping an unnamed accuser in 2013. Weinstein claims the incidents were consensual.
