Opening statements began in Harvey Weinstein’s rape retrial, five years after his original #MeToo trial delivered a searing reckoning for one of Hollywood’s most powerful figures. The case is being retried because an appeals court threw out the landmark 2020 conviction. The retrial is happening at the same Manhattan courthouse as the first trial, and two accusers who gave evidence then are expected to return.

NEW YORK (AP) - Opening statements in Harvey Weinstein 's rape retrial began Wednesday, five years after his original #MeToo trial delivered a searing reckoning for one of Hollywood's most powerful figures. Emphasizing the former studio boss's onetime influence in the movie industry, prosecutor Shannon Lucey said Weinstein used "dream opportunities as weapons" to prey on the three accusers in the case. He is charged with raping one and forcing oral sex on the other two.

The case is being retried because an appeals court threw out the landmark 2020 conviction. The retrial is happening at the same Manhattan courthouse as the first trial, and two accusers who testified then are expected to return. Weinstein’s retrial is playing out at a different cultural moment than the first, which happened during the height of the #MeToo movement. Along with the charges being retried, he faces an additional allegation from a woman who wasn’t involved in the first case.
