Harvey Weinstein Sentenced to 15 Years in Prison in New York Retrial

The former film mogul was convicted on a count of criminal sexual assault against Miriam Haley in June 2025.

Harvey Weinstein was sentenced to 15 years in prison in New York in his felony sex crime retrial for which he was convicted on June 11, 2025.

The former film mogul was guilty of one count of criminal sexual assault against former “Project Runway” assistant Miriam Haley and not guilty of a separate count of criminal sexual assault against model Kaja Sokola, and he was acquitted of a third count. Weinstein originally was sentenced to 23 years in prison as part of this case, but a judge later overturned the verdict and ordered a new trial after it was deemed he did not receive a fair one.

The 15-year sentence split the difference between Weinstein’s attorneys asking for a 9-year sentence and prosecutors seeking a 20-year sentence.

Weinstein still faces another lawsuit in New York and is awaiting re-sentencing in Los Angeles after a judge in June determined that he would need to be resentenced following his prior sentence of 16 years in prison.

In May of this year, a case involving actress Jessica Mann ended in a mistrial after Weinstein had been tried on the case for what was the third time.
