’s legal team is requesting a new trial with a new jury, after the former Hollywood producer was found guilty of rape and sexual assault during his L.A. trial late last year.
The three charges on which Weinstein was found guilty all came from Jane Doe #1, meaning the jury did not convict him on charges relating to any other women who took the stand. The defense argues they were precluded from admitting evidence and argument necessary to their case — particularly centering around Jane Doe #1, the European model whoafter the L.A. Italia Film Festival, on which the jury convicted him.
The defense argued that they were prevented from showing that Jane Doe #1 had a romantic relationship with Pascal Vicedomini, the organizer of the L.A. Italia Film Festival. Both Jane Doe #1 and Vicedomini denied that they were anything more than friends.
