Harvey Weinstein will remain in custody in New York while awaiting retrial on rape and sexual assault charges in Manhattan, prosecutors confirmed Monday as the former movie mogul made a brief court appearance related to California’s request to extradite him there.
NEW YORK —
“Today, defendant Harvey Weinstein was formally arraigned on a governor’s warrant issued by Governor Kathy Hochul, who exercised her authority for him to remain in New York State until his case in New York County is adjudicated," Katz said. “He will serve the California sentence first, as it is now his primary sentence.”
The extradition matter has been taking place in Queens, rather than Manhattan, court due to its proximity to Rikers Island.
