«Breaking News» Harvey Weinstein won't face any criminal misconduct charges

Harvey Weinstein will not face any charges of criminal misconduct amid allegations he used his companies' money to silence accusers, it is claimed. 


Prosecutors in Manhattan conducted a year-long probe into Weinstein's financial affairs to determine whether the disgraced movie mogul misappropriated funds from his companies to silence women he allegedly sexually assaulted.


Now law-enforcement sources have told PageSix that they have found no evidence to proceed with a successful fraud or larceny indictment against Weinstein.


The District Attorney's Office  issued the Weinstein company, Miramax and two law firms which represented him and his company with subpoenas demanding they hand over documents for the investigation.

While the new is a welcome development for Weinstein's legal team, he still faces assault, rape and other charges relating to two victims, production assistant Mimi Haleyi and another unidentified woman.


'The fact that the District Attorney’s Office has officially closed their investigation does not surprise me in the least,' Weinstein’s defense lawyer Ben Brafman told PageSix in reference to the financial crimes probe.


'I have been explaining to them for almost a year that this inquiry was a mindless voyage as Mr Weinstein never defrauded any company or person and always paid his own bills, or after the fact, by agreement, reimbursed the company for any personal expense'. 

Over the last two decades, Weinstein has agreed settlements with more than a dozen women, including Italian model Ambra Battilana Gutierrez who reportedly got a $1 million settlement. 


Gutierrez made headlines in 2015 when she accused Weinstein of attempting to force himself on her in his New York City office. 


She said previously that she was forced into exile because no one believed her story. 


The model said she suffered from depression and struggled to find work until last year, when explosive reports detailed other women’s disturbing encounters with Weinstein.

Assistant DA Kevin Wilson had led the investigation that was supervised by Christopher Conroy, chief of the Major Economic Crimes Bureau.


A source told PageSix: 'A potential financial crimes indictment was seen as a backup to the sex assault case


'It was an insurance policy if the sex assault case collapsed', the source added.


Wilson is now working alongside Joan Illuzzi-Orbon, the lead prosecutor on the sex crimes case.


Earlier this month New York prosecutors pushed back against Weinstein's latest attempt to have the criminal case against him dismissed, saying there is 'ample evidence' to move forward with the sexual assault charges.

The Manhattan DA played down the witness coaching allegations against the lead detective in the case, saying the indictment against Weinstein should stand despite prosecutors' recent decision to dismiss one of the six counts against him.


Weinstein's lawer Ben Brafman filed a motion this month to dismiss the remaining count against him, which Judge Burke has yet to rule on.


In court papers, prosecutors argued that their case is still strong.


 The Manhattan District Attorney declined to make any comment.


Brafman added: 'Had they [prosecutors] listened to me early on, it would have saved the District Attorney a lot of time and money'.

Weinstein’s lawyers asked a judge to jettison the entire case earlier this month, citing evidence that Detective Nicholas DiGaudio told a witness to keep quiet when she raised doubts about the veracity of a sexual assault allegation against Weinstein.


DiGaudio told the witness that 'less is more,' prosecutors acknowledged last month.


Weinstein’s attorneys have described DiGaudio as 'a serial obstructer' who was 'singularly hell-bent on concealing the truth'.


The officer’s conduct prompted the district attorney’s office to dismiss a count that alleged Weinstein forced Lucia Evans to perform oral sex in 2004 when she was a college student and fledgling actress.

Weinstein, 66, was originally charged with assaulting three women. He denies all allegations of non-consensual sex.


In their attempt to have the case dismissed, his lawyers accused prosecutors of failing to show the grand jury evidence that they contend undermines the charges.


In a hearing earlier this month, Wilson countered that prosecutors have no obligation to present to the grand jury evidence favorable to a defendant.


'A review of the grand jury minutes will reveal that evidence was presented properly and with correct legal instructions', Wilson wrote in the filing.


Brafman, the defense attorney, said he plans to file a reply to the prosecution’s motion after Thanksgiving.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
