Harvey Weinstein

The 67-year-old former producer received nearly the maximum sentence for the counts he was convicted of last month. At the hearing, he compared the effects of the #MeToo movement to the Red Scare.

Jurors in Manhattan spared the 67-year-old former producer the harshest penalty he might have faced but convicted him on two out of five counts. He faces the possibility of decades in prison.

The disgraced movie mogul is already facing first-degree rape and other charges in New York. Now, Weinstein is facing new accusations that he assaulted a woman in 2006.

The disgraced Hollywood megaproducer turned himself in to authorities Friday morning in New York City, where he was charged with rape and sexual misconduct for incidents involving two women.
