Harvey Weinstein, 72, Faces Death Risk from 'Torture Chamber' Conditions at Rikers Island Amid Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Dec 6, 2024, 11:30 PM
Harvey Weinstein's legal team has expressed serious concerns regarding his treatment at Rikers Island, where they fear he may die due to alleged neglect and harsh conditions. Attorney Imran H. Ansari described the facility as akin to a 'torture chamber or medieval dungeon,' citing that Weinstein has been left in blood-spattered clothes and the same underwear for weeks, exposed to freezing temperatures, and denied essential medical care for his chronic myeloid leukemia. Ansari suggested that Weinstein, 72, is being deliberately targeted for mistreatment because of his past status as a powerful figure in Hollywood. The lawyers claim that the current conditions of confinement could lead to Weinstein's death if not addressed promptly.
