Harvey Weinstein's New York sexual assault conviction has been thrown out by an appeals court, but it's just one of many cases the disgraced movie mogul has faced. Others include a Los Angeles criminal trial that led to a conviction for rape and sexual assault. The 16-year prison sentence in that case means Weinstein won't go free because of the New York reversal. The Italian model and actor whose testimony led to his conviction in Los Angeles also has sued him in civil court. So has actor Julia Ormond, who says he committed sexual battery and then sabotaged her career. Weinstein has denied all the allegations.

Harvey Weinstein's accusers and their advocates were shocked and angered by an appellate court’s decision to overturn the ex-movie mogul’s 2020 rape conviction. But #MeToo advocates also sought to send a clear message that the movement has not been derailed. Tarana Burke, who coined the phrase “Me too” in 2006, and Anita Hill, who testified against Clarence Thomas in 1991, both urged a long view, saying no single legal ruling can reverse the tremendous cultural progress made in the last six years. The appeals court overturned the conviction in a 4-3 vote, finding the trial judge unfairly allowed testimony based on allegations that were not part of the case.

U.S. Army reservists who witnessed the mental and physical decline of a colleague who would commit Maine’s deadliest mass shooting told a commission that they tried to intervene before the tragedy. Six weeks before Robert Card killed 18 people at a bar and bowling alley in Lewiston, Maine, last October, his best friend and fellow reservist Sean Hodgson texted a warning to supervisors. Hodgson spoke publicly about Card for the first time on Thursday when he told a commission investigating the killings that he feared at the time that Card was about to conduct a mass shooting.
