Harvey Weinstein trial: Defense attorney attacks credibility of accusers in closing arguments for Los Angeles case

In his closings, Weinstein's attorney urged jurors to look past the emotion of the testimony the four women gave, and focus on the factual evidence.

He said the testimony was also dishonest, as when Siebel Newsom testified that she bumped into Weinstein occasionally after the assault, including an encounter at the 2007 film festival, which left her "triggered." Jackson pointed to an email where Siebel Newsom had actually sought out the meetup with Weinstein.

He showed photos of Jane Doe 1 smiling as she interacted with director Quentin Tarantino on the following night of the festival, with Weinstein sitting just a few feet away.
