Weinstein remark revealed as third Manhattan sex-crimes trial opens

Prosecutors disclosed a reportedly disturbing remark Harvey Weinstein allegedly made to a court officer during his 2020 Manhattan sex-crimes trial, saying, 'If you had seen these girls, you would have done the exact same thing,' as jury selection began for Weinstein's third Manhattan sex-crimes trial; defense questioned why the statement was disclosed six years later while Weinstein, who faces a third-degree rape charge from former actress Jessica Mann, awaits another trial after a 2024 overturning of his conviction.
