The split verdict meted out a measure of vindication to his accusers and prosecutors — but also to Weinstein — after the landmark case was thrown into limbo…

> 
> Weinstein’s sentencing for sexually assaulting one-time TV production assistant Miriam Haley followed a legal odyssey spanning more than six years. His 2020 conviction was overturned by New York’s highest court, citing testimony from other women whose allegations weren’t part of the case. A second jury found Weinstein guilty again at a retrial last year.

Very likely. He’s 74, and reportedly had emergency heart surgery in 2024, as well as having chronic myeloid leukemia and Fournier gangrene (NSFW to google this, trust me).
