Harvey Weinstein judge declares mistrial on rape charge, third sex crimes trial planned
Jury deadlock on rape charge leads to mistrial, while Weinstein’s sex abuse conviction faces appeal

The judge overseeing Harvey Weinstein’s criminal case in Manhattan declared a mistrial on a rape charge on Thursday, one day after the former Hollywood movie mogul was convicted on a separate felony sex abuse charge.
Justice Curtis Farber of the state Supreme Court ended the trial after the jury foreperson refused to deliberate for a sixth day, following multiple days of reported dissension among jurors that at times was aired in the courtroom.
Prosecutors plan to try Weinstein a third time on the charge of third-degree rape, over his alleged mistreatment of the aspiring actress Jessica Mann in 2013.

They convicted him of first-degree criminal sexual act over his alleged assault of former production assistant Miriam Haley in 2006, and acquitted him of the same charge over his alleged assault of aspiring actress Kaja Sokola in 2002.
