Planned Parenthood supporter Harvey Weinstein gets 15 years for sex crimes
Harvey Weinstein, the Hollywood heavyweight who was a longtime supporter of the abortion industry, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for sex crimes.
Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein has faced numerous charges of rape and sexual assault in multiple states, giving rise to the #MeToo movement.
He was convicted of committing a first-degree criminal sexual act in New York against production assistant Miriam Haley, though this conviction was later overturned.
Weinstein was again found guilty, and sentenced to 15 years in prison in New York, though there are other legal battles continuing in California as well.
While a Hollywood producer, Weinstein was a vocal supporter of abortion and frequently donated to Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion chain.
In 2022, Weinstein was found guilty of several sexual assault charges in California, after over a dozen women came forward with accusations of rape and abuse in 2017. That led to the #MeToo movement and his first convictions in 2020 in the state of New York, where he was sentenced to 23 years in prison on charges of rape and sexual assault.
He was sentenced to serve 16 years in California, though that conviction is currently undergoing resentencing.
“Harvey Weinstein forever destroyed a part of me that night in 2013. I will never get that back,” Jane Doe 1, one of his victims, said in a statement. “The criminal trial was brutal. Weinstein’s lawyers put me through hell on the witness stand. But I knew I had to see this through the end, and I did… I hope Harvey Weinstein never sees the outside of a prison cell during his lifetime.”
In 2024, one of the rape convictions in New York, regarding his assault of production assistant Miriam Haley, was overturned. The judge called for a new trial to be held.
Abortion is a tool often used by abusers to hide their crimes, which is perhaps by Weinstein was such an ardent supporter of the abortion industry and Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion business, which has a long history of aiding sexual abusers and covering up sex trafficking and child abuse.
Weinstein has again been found guilty, and sentenced to 15 years in prison in New York. Haley said the experience has been incredibly difficult for her.
“I have been further traumatized in exercising my right to hold him accountable,” she said, adding, "It has often felt that I was the one on trial."
Despite being imprisoned on Riker's Island, Assistant District Attorney Nicole Blumberg said Weinstein offered nearly $2 million to a podcaster in an effort to contaminate the jury pool before the trial. Even after sentencing, Weinstein has continued to maintain his innocence.
Miriam Haley explained that she has never been able to regain a feeling of safety, as Weinstein allegedly hired private investigators to follow her and his defense attorneys mocked her in the media.
“Having been sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein has had a devastating effect on my life and sense of security that may never go away. Making the decision to speak up will have me looking over my shoulder for years to come," she said. “It’s a life sentence for me."
