Harvey Weinstein was convicted of\u00a0third degree rape\u00a0<\/strong>and a criminal sexual act by a New York jury of seven men and five women, who took five days to reach their verdict. He faces up to\u00a025 years in prison<\/strong>, and will remain in custody until his March 11 sentencing.<\/p>\n Weinstein was acquitted of predatory sexual assault, the most serious charge, and first degree rape.<\/p>\n The jury was deadlocked on the charge of predatory sexual assault, the most serious accusation against the disgraced 67-year-old Hollywood mogul, offering a glimpse into disagreements between jurors who had been deliberating in New York City over four days.<\/p>\n Jurors had told Judge James Burke in a note, \u201cWe the jury request to understand if we can be hung on 1 and or 3 but unanimous on the others.\u201d<\/p>\n Counts 1 and 3 are charges of predatory sexual assault.<\/p>\n Count 2 is criminal sexual act in the first degree, count 4 is rape in the first degree, and count 5 is rape in the third degree.<\/p>\n Burke told jurors that any verdict that they returned must be unanimous and that if they cannot be unanimous on a specific criminal count then they cannot return a verdict for that count. –CNBC<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/s3\/files\/inline-images\/weinstein%20sketch.png?itok=cYM_4z6P\")
