Harvey Weinstein indicted on new charges

Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced producer, is having a karmically bad week.

Just a few days ago he was rushed from his cell at Rikers to a hospital to have heart surgery of some kind and now he’s once again been indicted on assault charges.

Earlier this month a grand jury had been convened to hear from women who had come forward with new accusations against Weinstein, 72.

Weinstein did not appear in court Thursday and will be arraigned after he recovers from his medical issues.

In all, more than 80 women have accused the Oscar-winning ex-producer of sexual assault or harassment. He has repeatedly and vehemently denied those claims, insisting the encounters in question were consensual.
