Harvey Weinstein Indecent Assault Case Ended By U.K. Prosecutors

British prosecutors have dropped indecent assault charges against Harvey Weinstein. The alleged assault, said to have occurred in London in 1996, involved a woman now in her 50s. The Crown Prosecution Service discontinued the criminal proceedings after a review of the evidence, determining that there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. Weinstein, who was previously found guilty and jailed in the US, is still facing a possible retrial in November after the New York Court of Appeals threw out his Manhattan conviction. He’s already been convicted in Los Angeles and sentenced to 16 years. (NBC News)
