Ex-film mogul Harvey Weinstein begged for leniency in a Los Angeles courtroom moments earlier than he was given an extra 16 years in jail for rape.
He was convicted of attacking an actress in a lodge room throughout a movie competition within the metropolis in February 2013.
“Please do not sentence me to life in jail,” the disgraced Hollywood star instructed the courtroom. “I do not deserve it.”
Greater than 80 individuals have made rape and misconduct claims about Weinstein relationship again so far as the late Seventies.
The 70-year-old is already serving a 23-year jail sentence for a separate conviction in New York.
