Summary

Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein has produced some of the most critically acclaimed films on our time. He has made people movie stars, cemented the careers of writers and allowed directors to flourish. Some say he did it all with a very heavy hand too. Will he approach his criminal defense in his sexual assault trial the same way? Will Harvey Weinstein “produce” his own defense? Those are the questions Vinnie and Seema will discuss as they look at the cast of lawyers Weinstein has hired to represent him against sexual assault charges that could send him to prison for the rest of his life. That cast has been a revolving door of some of the best criminal defense lawyers in the country. Is his final “dream team” what he needs to prove his innocence? For all the latest updates and full trial coverage, watch Court TV.
