Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein was indicted again on new sex crime charges in New York on Thursday.

Harvey Weinstein is currently at Bellevue for medical treatment after he was rushed out of Rikers Island prison for emergency heart surgery on Monday.

Weinstein was convicted of sexual assault and rape in 2020 during the height of the #MeToo movement.

Harvey Weinstein was found guilty of rape in a Los Angeles sexual assault trial in 2022. He was also found guilty of rape in Manhattan court in 2020.
