Jurors in Harvey Weinstein rape trial indicate deadlock on most serious charges

The jury deciding Harvey Weinstein’s fate in a criminal trial indicated that it is split on two of the most serious charges against him.

The jurors sent a note to presiding Judge James Burke on Friday during their lunch break, asking if they were allowed to be hung on two counts of predatory sexual assault and make unanimous decisions on all other charges. “We the jury ask if we can be hung on counts one and three, and unanimous on the others,” the note reportedly read.
