Weinstein Sentenced to 15 Years for a 2006 Assault

Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting Miriam Haley, a former production assistant, in 2006. Variety reports that the sentencing followed an overturned conviction and two subsequent mistrials. The outlet calls it a major endpoint in the New York chapter of a nine-year courtroom saga that, in its telling, ignited the global #MeToo movement.
