Harvey Weinstein has been found guilty of rape in the third degree but cleared of the most serious charges of predatory sexual assault at his trial in New York.
The allegations sparked the MeToo movement against sexual harassment and abuse and dozens of women made accusations against the disgraced film mogul.
The 67-year-old was found guilty of a criminal sex act for assaulting production assistant Mimi Haleyi at his apartment in 2006 and third-degree rape of a woman in 2013.
Following the verdicts, New York County District Attorney, Cyrus Vance, described Weinstein as a "vicious, serial sexual predator".
