Hollywood
movie mogul
Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to face 23 years in prison in New York rape trial. Weinstein was convicted for raping an aspiring actress in 2013 and forcibly performing oral sex on a TV and film production assistant in 2006.
Supreme court judge
James Bruke
passed the judgement and also stated that Weinstein will be officially registered as a sexual offender.
Now, journalist
Elizabeth Wagmeister
shared a video on her Twitter account where we can see people clapping shouting 'Justice' as the six women who testified against the producer, Cy Vance, prosecutors and Rosie Perez walk through the courtroom.
Check out the video here:
The New York case was the first criminal matter against Weinstein to arise from accusations of more than 90 women, including actresses
Gwyneth Paltrow,
Salma Hayek and
Uma Thurman.
Many of Weinstein's accusers say he used his Hollywood prestige to befriend them, dangling movie roles to gain their trust.
