Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced movie mogul, was sentenced in Manhattan to 15 years in prison Wednesday for a felony sex crime in another #MeToo reckoning.

Weinstein's sentencing for sexually assaulting one-time TV production assistant Miriam Haley followed a legal odyssey spanning more than six years. His 2020 conviction was overturned by New York's highest court, citing testimony from other women whose allegations weren't part of the case. A second jury found Weinstein guilty again at a retrial last year.

Once among the most powerful figures in the entertainment industry, Weinstein was an Oscar-winning producer whose hits included "Shakespeare in Love," "Pulp Fiction," and "Chocolat." But his downfall came quickly after sexual assault allegations in 2017 set off the #MeToo movement.

Weinstein, 74, is expected to appeal. He is now likely to remain behind bars until at least his late 80s. He has denied raping or sexually assaulting anyone. Seated in a wheelchair, he was quickly wheeled out of the courtroom after the sentencing, while some of his accusers hugged and brushed away tears.

Weinstein faced up to 25 years in prison for sexually assaulting Haley at his Manhattan apartment in 2006. He has already served more than six years as his case has cycled again and again through the criminal justice system. Haley gave her account of the assault at two trials, and addressed the court Wednesday just before Weinstein was sentenced.

"Having been sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein has had a devastating effect on my life and sense of security that may never go away. Making the decision to speak up will have me looking over my shoulder for years to come," Haley said. "It's a life sentence for me."

"I've been further traumatized in exercising my right to hold him accountable. All of this traces back to his actions," she said, adding that she thought about ending her pursuit of justice many times.

Minutes later, Weinstein apologized in court to those he may have hurt. "I do have remorse for Miriam Haley's pain, but I have to reiterate my innocence," he told the judge.

Judge Curtis Farber said Weinstein was once a king in the movie industry, "but recognition for these achievements will pale in comparison to what you did."

He said Weinstein is now known as "a sexual predator, the literal face of the MeToo movement."

Weinstein was originally sentenced to 23 years in prison after a jury convicted him of assaulting Haley and raping an aspiring actress, Jessica Mann, in 2013.

Tried for a second time last year, he was again convicted of a first-degree criminal sex act for assaulting Haley, who has also gone by the name Mimi Haleyi. In a messy split verdict, the jury acquitted him of forcibly performing oral sex on another woman, Kaja Sokola, and could not reach a verdict on a rape charge involving Mann.

"I will be proven innocent. That I promise you," Weinstein told The Hollywood Reporter in a jailhouse interview in March.

After another retrial ended in a hung jury in May, Manhattan prosecutors dropped the rape charge rather than pursue a fourth trial after Mann said she could not bear to testify again. That decision cleared the way for Weinstein's sentencing.

Defense lawyer Jacob Kaplan asked that Weinstein receive a sentence of three more years on top of the six years he's already served, saying a longer sentence would make it more likely that Weinstein dies in prison.

Weinstein is in failing health and has been in the hospital six times since 2025, Kaplan said, while dealing with blood cancer, congestive heart failure, and kidney issues.

Weinstein is also awaiting resentencing in a separate rape case in Los Angeles. A California appeals court upheld the 2022 conviction but threw out his original 16-year sentence because the judge had considered his New York convictions — that were later thrown out — as an aggravating factor.

After shuffling between state prison, where he tested positive for COVID-19 early in the pandemic, and New York City's notorious Rikers Island complex, the ailing Weinstein is now housed at a medical unit for jail inmates at Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan.

His health issues in recent years have included chronic myeloid leukemia, diabetes, and walking difficulties, his lawyers said. Two years ago, he underwent emergency surgery to remove fluid on his heart and lungs.

Haley, 49, is a former entertainment producer now working in advertising.

Born in Finland and raised in Sweden, she said she met Weinstein through a mutual connection and worked briefly as a production assistant on a reality competition show that he produced, "Project Runway."

Haley said she accepted an invitation to visit Weinstein's Manhattan apartment because it would have been odd to decline since she was scheduled to fly to Los Angeles the next day on his company's dime to attend a film premiere.

After she and Weinstein briefly chatted on his living room sofa, he lunged to kiss her, she testified. She said she leaped up and rebuffed him, but he grabbed her, forcibly backed her into a bedroom and sexually assaulted her, ignoring her pleas to stop.

She recalled Weinstein asking, "Don't you think we're much closer now?" after either the alleged assault or a subsequent occasion when she says she had unwanted, but not forced, sex with him.

She also recalled telling him after the second encounter, "You know you can't keep doing this."

The Associated Press does not typically identify people who say they are victims of sexual assault unless they grant permission, which Haley, Sokola, and Mann have done.

Activism

Weinstein was active on issues such as gun control, poverty, AIDS, juvenile diabetes, and multiple sclerosis research. Until October 2017,[148] he served on the board of the Robin Hood Foundation, a New York City-based non-profit that targets poverty, and co-chaired one of its annual benefits.[149] Weinstein was critical of the lack of universal healthcare in the United States.[150]

Weinstein has been a longtime supporter of and contributor to the Democratic Party, including the campaigns of President Barack Obama and presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and John Kerry.[151] Weinstein supported Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign.[152] In 2012, he hosted an election fundraiser for Obama at his home in Westport, Connecticut.

Fashion

Weinstein was active in the fashion industry. He produced the fashion reality show Project Runway, making stars of designer Michael Kors, model Heidi Klum and editor Nina Garcia.[154] Weinstein was instrumental in the revival of Halston, collaborating with Tamara Mellon, Sarah Jessica Parker, and stylist Rachel Zoe. He licensed the option to revive the Charles James brand. Celebrities were asked to wear Marchesa (the label of his then-partner and later then-wife, Georgina Chapman) at least once if they were cast in a Weinstein movie. Weinstein's production companies were frequently involved in fashion-themed movies, including Madonna's W.E., Robert Altman's Prêt-à-Porter, and Tom Ford's A Single Man. Stars of Weinstein's films appeared on more than a dozen Vogue covers.

Fed's Collins Says She Supported Rate Hike, Warns of Elevated Inflation Risks (Connecting the Dots: Boston Federal Reserve President Susan Collins, The Federal Reserve & The Carnegie/Soros Network)

Tuesday, 22 September 2026 11:43 AM EDT

(Andrew Harnik/AP)

https://www.newsmax.com/finance/streettalk/susan-collins-federal-reserve-interest-rates/2026/09/22/id/1270252/

Boston Federal Reserve President Susan Collins wrote Tuesday that she supported the US central bank's decision last week to raise interest rates in the face of risks that future inflation will be above the 2% ‌target.

"I now see an increased likelihood of ​future scenarios in which inflation remains notably above 2%," Collins wrote on LinkedIn. "With the labor market on a ⁠better footing, monetary policy can focus on a timely return to ​price stability, especially after five and a half years of too-high ⁠inflation," she said. "A somewhat more restrictive federal funds rate will help ensure that inflation durably returns to target."

The Fed last week raised its interest rate ‌target by a quarter of a percentage point to the ​3.75%-4.00% range in ‌an effort to curb price pressures. Policymakers also penciled in another rate increase before the ‌year is out, although Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh, who is averse to providing guidance about future monetary policy, did not affirm ⁠that Fed projection.

Collins, who is ‌not a voting ⁠member of the rate-setting Federal Open Market Committee this year, did not say ⁠in ⁠her posting if she wants rates to go up again.

The current outlook for the Fed ‌is particularly challenging because much of the upward drift in price pressures is from supply shocks, such as the US-Israeli war with Iran, ‌that are hard ​to counter with ‌tighter monetary policy. The persistence of inflation above the 2% target, however, has pushed Fed officials to move away from ​looking through what would have once been viewed as transient hits to inflation.
