After the verdict, a handcuffed Weinstein was taken into custody. Harvey, in the first instance, was found guilty for compelling Production assistant Miriam Haley to give him oral sex. On the second charge, Harvey was convicted of raping a woman in a New York hotel in 2013. He could get a maximum of 25 years on this count.
Harvey was seen escorted off the court premises with cuffed hands.
