The disgraced Hollywood movie producer Harvey Weinstein is standing trial Monday in Los Angeles, where he faces 11 sex crimes charges.
The one-time producer of “Pulp Fiction” was already convicted in New York on similar charges and is serving a 23-year sentence in the state.
His 2020 conviction in New York state transformed the charges against him from tales told by some of Hollywood’s most famous leading women, including Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Salma Hayek, into a criminal conviction.
The 70-year-old is facing charges including sexual battery by restraint, forcible rape, and forcible oral copulation. It is alleged the crimes took place between 2004 and 2013 in hotels in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles.
The trial is expected to last two months. Weinstein, who is expected to plead not guilty to all the charges, could face up to 140 more years in prison.
