When asked by Superior Court Judge Lisa Lench, Weinstein confirmed it is his decision to stay off the witness stand.
Harvey Weinstein's defense team returned from the holiday break with a full plate as they began presenting their case while continuing to discredit each of the women who testified against the defendant.The first of two days in the defense's case had four witnesses: Mr. C's Hotel general manager, a firefighter with the city of Los Angeles, and a Beverly Hills Police Department detective, all relevant to Jane Doe 1's testimony.
Throughout the weeks-long trial, each of four Jane Does who took the stand over illustrated in great detail their accusation that Weinstein either raped or sexually assaulted them."They have to validate those emotions," said Lou Shapiro, a criminal defense attorney not affiliated with this case. "But at the same time, they can challenge the allegations as misunderstandings, or understandings.
"We know that Werksman spent a lot of time and questions addressing the issues that, 'Well, you went to Weinstein once, you had an unpleasant encounter that you didn't want to get involved with, but then you went back again. You kept in touch,'" said Shapiro.
