Print At last, Harvey Weinstein, the onetime Hollywood power broker who was convicted of sexual assault in New York, will face the court trial in Los Angeles he has tried to evade for months. The breadth of Weinstein’s revolting sexual predation — first revealed in 2017 by the New York Times and the New Yorker — is so staggering that he was charged on both coasts after dozens of women in the entertainment industry came forward with anguished stories of being assaulted or harassed by the producer who had the power to make or hinder their careers. More than 80 women in the U.S. and Europe have accused him of sexual abuse.
