Harvey Weinstein Hospitalized in New York After Alarming Blood Test; Attorney Alleges Inadequate Care
Dec 2, 2024, 09:16 PM
Harvey Weinstein, the former Hollywood producer convicted of sexual misconduct, was hospitalized on Monday after an alarming blood test result, his attorney announced. Weinstein, who is battling leukemia as confirmed by his representative, was transferred to Bellevue Hospital in New York City for emergent treatment. He has been held at Rikers Island jail complex awaiting a new trial, and his lawyer alleges that he has not been receiving adequate medical care, describing the conditions as "cruel and unusual punishment" and "deplorable and inhumane." Weinstein's legal team is suing New York City for failing to provide proper medical attention.
