The Harvey Weinstein Verdict - a podcast by Jill Rosensweig

In this week's episode of the Whole Truth with Jill Rosensweig, Attorney Rosensweig is providing a detailed analysis of the sexual assault and rape charges that Harvey Weinstein faced and exactly what he was convicted of (and what he was not).  Attorney Rosensweig describes the allegations that were made by Miriam Haley, which resulted in a conviction of 1st degree Criminal Sexual Assault and compares them against the allegations of Annabella Sciorra, which could have resulted in the most serious conviction of predatory sexual assault but did not.  Why did the jury believe Miriam Haley's story but they presumably did not believe Annabella Sciorra's?  Their stories are strikingly similar so what led to this inconsistent result?  Attorney Rosensweig reviews the strengths and weaknesses of both claims and provides various theories for you to consider so that you can decide for yourself.   And, while most feel the result of this trial is a huge victory, are you frustrated with the fact that Harvey Weinstein was not convicted of predatory sexual assault when approximately 80 women have come forward with allegations of sexual assault, rape and/or sexual harassment against him?  Attorney Rosensweig discusses all of this and more in the 40th episode.
