UPDATE, end of day: The jury in the Harvey Weinstein sexual misconduct trial completed its third day of deliberations today without a verdict – but with a last-minute request to review even more testimony and evidence regarding actress Annabelle Sciorra
, actress Rosie Perez. Court reporters read the Perez testimony to the jury and spectators late Wednesday afternoon, with New York Supreme Court Judge James Burke instructing attorneys on both sides to submit the requested emails for jury review Thursday morning.
The first count against Weinstein is for predatory sexual assault against Haley and Sciorra – the jury must unanimously agree that Weinstein assaulted both women. Haley, a formerproduction assistant, alleges that Weinstein forcibly performed oral sex on her in a TriBeCa Grand Hotel room on a July night in 2006.
In addition to re-hearing the Perez testimony – including the actress’ claim that Sciorra told her of the rape back in the early 1990s – the jury requested all Sciorra-related emails, including those between Weinstein and his private investigators
