Harvey Weinstein will be re-tried for sex crimes in New York City as soon as September, the Manhattan District Attorney's office said on Wednesday. The big picture: The allegations of sexual assault and harassment against Weinstein helped reignite the global #MeToo movement.

Harvey Weinstein is scheduled to appear in court in Manhattan on Wednesday for the first time since New York's highest court overturned his sex crimes conviction. The Manhattan District Attorney's Office said it intends to retry Weinstein if the complaining witnesses are willing to participate in another trial.
