Ex-movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, now 67-years old, has been sentenced to 23 years in a New York State prison after being convicted of rape and sexual assault charges.
The former Hollywood producer, nopw a convicted rapist, “faced between five and 29 years in prison after being convicted of criminal sex act and third-degree rape,” The Wall Street Journal reports.
“Both the main accusers,” The Guardian adds, “as well as the four other witnesses from trial – the Sopranos actor Annabella Sciorra, Dawn Dunning, Tarale Wulff and Lauren Young – came into court as a united group, sitting at the front row alongside Cyrus Vance, the district attorney of New York who led the prosecution. The women were cheered as they walked into court.”
