Just a month after his felony sex crimes conviction in New York was overturned, movie producer Harvey Weinstein has filed anto overturn his conviction in Los Angeles . He argues that the jury improperly heard about uncharged sexual assault s and claims he was not allowed to present evidence that would have shown his accuser to be a" brazen liar ." The brief was filed on Friday.
Weinstein was found guilty of one count of rape and two counts of sexual assault in a Los Angeles court in 2022 and was sentenced to 16 years in prison. Evgeniya Chernyshova, a former actress and model, testified at the trial that Weinstein appeared uninvited in her hotel room during the LA Italia Film Festival in 2013 and raped her. She was known only as Jane Doe 1 during the trial and publicly revealed her identity afterward.
Weinstein’s appeal asserts that the messages would have demonstrated that both witnesses committed perjury by testifying they were only friends and colleagues. Moreover, it would have supported the defense's argument that Chernyshova was with Vicedomini at the time of the alleged attack. During the original trial, the prosecution claimed that Vicedomini had invited Chernyshova to the film festival for Weinstein’s sexual benefit.
