Harvey Weinstein’s lawyer said Saturday that the onetime movie mogul has been hospitalized for tests after his return to New York City after an appeals court ruling overturned his 2020 rape conviction.
Attorney Arthur Aidala told the Associated Press that Weinstein was moved to Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan after his arrival on Friday to city jails.
“They examined him and sent him to Bellevue. It seems like he needs a lot of help, physically. He’s got a lot of problems. He’s getting all kinds of tests. He’s somewhat of a train wreck health wise,” Aidala told the Associated Press.
This is a developing news story and will be updated with more information.
