Eight Cases Against Harvey Weinstein Being Reviewed

Harvey Weinstein is all set to go on trial next month yet again in New York on account of rape and sexual assault charges. However, the catch here is that irrespective of whatever the case's outcome will be, he will face criminal jeopardy in Los Angeles.

According Variety, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office is now reviewing eight cases against the disgraced producer, according to D.A. spokesman Greg Risling.

The D.A.’s office has received four cases each from the Los Angeles Police Department and the Beverly Hills Police Department, and has yet to decide whether to file charges on any of them. Two of those cases were submitted within the last few months, and have not been previously reported.

Weinstein has adamantly denied all allegations of non-consensual sex.

Weinstein is also facing civil litigation. Earlier this month, The Weinstein Company insurers agreed to terms on a $25 million “global settlement” of sexual misconduct litigation.
