New York appeals court overturns Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction from landmark #MeToo trial

Quick Glance: New York Overturns Harvey Weinstein's 2020 Rape Conviction

New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, citing prejudicial rulings by the judge in the landmark #MeToo trial.

The State Court of Appeals ruling reopens a painful chapter in America's reckoning with sexual misconduct by powerful figures, ordering a new trial where his accusers might have to relive their traumas.

Weinstein, 72, has been serving a 23-year sentence in a New York prison following his conviction, but will remain imprisoned due to another rape conviction in Los Angeles in 2022.

This decision marks another setback for #MeToo, following the US Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal in the Bill Cosby case, where his sexual assault conviction was overturned by a Pennsylvania court.

During a hearing at the Supreme Court, the justices may have redefined the limits of presidential power.

The decision's implications could impact presidential immunity and alter the prosecution of presidents.

Various provocative scenarios were discussed, including whether a president could assassinate a political rival and whether a president could pardon themselves.

Justices raised critical questions about distinguishing between the president's official and private conduct and the potential criminalization of presidential actions.

Quick Glance: Celtics Face Ridicule After Game 2 Loss to Heat Without Butler

The Miami Heat evened up their NBA playoff series with the Boston Celtics with a 111-101 win in Game 2.

Despite Miami's unusually strong performance from beyond the arc, Boston stayed within striking distance.

The Celtics need to step up, especially Kristaps Porziņģis, to be successful.

A win in Game 3 would be crucial for the Celtics to prove themselves as genuine contenders.

An prosecutor alleges that Donald Trump tried to illegally influence the 2016 election by preventing damaging stories about his personal life from becoming public.

The trial, potentially lasting up to two months, will require Trump to spend his days in a courtroom instead of on the campaign trail.

The indictment includes 34 counts of falsifying business records, punishable by up to four years in prison.
