In February, a jury found Weinstein guilty of a criminal sexual act in the first degree and rape in the third degree.
Just a few years removed from his position as one of the most powerful producers in Hollywood, Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 23 years in prison.
As noted by The New York Times, Judge James A. Burke “could have sentenced Mr. Weinstein, 67, to as little as five years and as much as 29.”
The allegations against Weinstein sparked more stories, against him and other predators, sparking an entire #MeToo movement against sexual harassment and assault.
