HARVEY WEINSTEIN NOW SITS IN A JAIL TONIGHT CONVICTED OF FELONY SEX CRIMES. AFTER FIVE DAYS OF DELIBERATIONS THE JURY FOUND WEINSTEIN GUILTY OF THIRD- DEGREE RAPE AND CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS BUT ACQUITTED HIM OF THREE OTHER COUNTS INCLUDING THE MOST SERIOUS, PREDATORY SEXUAL ASSAULT. HE SHOWED LITTLE EMOTION WHEN THE VERDICT WAS READ BUT SEEMED STUNNED WHEN HE WAS LED OUT OF THE COURTROOM IN HANDCUFFS. HE WAS NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE THE WALKER HE'S BEEN USING SINCE THE TRIAL BEGAN. IT WAS WHEELED OUT OF THE COURTROOM AFTER HE WAS TAKEN AWAY. ALICE GAINER HAS BEEN COVERING THE TRIAL SINCE THE BEGINNING AND WAS IN THE COURTROOM AS WELL WHEN THE VERDICT WAS READ. THE PACKED COURTROOM WAS MOSTLY SILENT AS THE VERDICT WAS READ. 15 COURT OFFICERS LINED THE PERIMETER WITH THREE OF THEM SURROUNDING WEINSTEIN SO IT WAS HARD TO SEE HIS EXACT REACTION AT THAT MOMENT. NOW, AFTER THE VERDICT WAS READ, IT REMAINED SILENT AS THE WORDS WERE DIGESTED BY ALL. HARVEY WEINSTEIN NOW A CONVICTED RAPIST. IF HARVEY WEINSTEIN WAS NERVOUS ABOUT A VERDICT TODAY, HE DIDN'T SHOW IT THIS MORNING. MR. WEINSTEIN, DID YOU GET ANY SLEEP THIS WEEKEND? Reporter: ABOUT TWO HOURS LATER, HE WOULD BE PUT INTO HANDCUFFS, CARTED OFF TO RIKERS ISLAND. WE THE JURY HAVE REACHED A VERDICT READ THE NOTE TO THE JUDGE AROUND 11:30 A.M., NOT GUILTY OF THE MOST SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST HIM, PREDATORY SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND NOT GUILTY OF RAPE IN THE FIRST DEGREE. BUT HE WAS FOUND GUILTY OF CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACT IN THE FIRST DEGREE AND RAPE IN THE THIRD DEGREE. HE DIDN'T CRY, HE DIDN'T BREAK DOWN. HE WASN'T SOBBING. HE WAS MORE IN A STATE OF DISBELIEF. HE SAID -- AND HE KEPT REPEATING BUT I'M INNOCENT. WEINSTEIN IS A VICIOUS SERIAL SEXUAL PREDATOR WHO USED HIS POWER TO THREATEN, RAPE, ASSAULT, TRICK, HUMILIATE AND SILENCE HIS VICTIMS. WOMEN WERE BELIEVED. Reporter: GLORIA ALLRED REPRESENTS TWO OF THE THREE WOMEN THE CHARGES WERE BASED AROUND. THIS IS THE AGE OF EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN AND YOU CANNOT INTIMIDATE THEM ANYMORE. Reporter: THE JURY'S VERDICT SHOWS THAT THEY BELIEVED THE TESTIMONY OF MIMI HALEYI AND JESSICA MANN BUT HAD DOUBTS ABOUT SCIORRA. FORCING A SEX ACT ON MIMI HALEYI IN 2006 AT HIS APARTMENT. HE WAS FOUND GUILTY OF ONE OF THE RAPE CHARGES, RAPE IN THE THIRD DEGREE FORE THE ATTACK ON JESSICA MANN IN 2013 AT A MANHATTAN HOTEL BUT NOT GUILTY OF RAPE IN THE FIRST DEGREE. HE WAS ALSO FOUND NOT GUILTY OF TWO COUNTS OF PREDATORY SEXUAL ASSAULT. ANNABELLA SCIORRA ALLEGES WEINSTEIN RAPED HER IN THE EARLY '90s AFTER FORCING HIS WAY INTO HER GRAMERCY PARK APARTMENT. THE STATUTES FOR LIMITATIONS FOR RAPE CHARGE HAD RUN OUT BUT THE D.A.'S OFFICE WAS ABLE TO USE HER ALLEGATION TOGETHER WITH HAILEYI AND MANN'S CRIME TO SHOW A PATTERN. ON FRIDAY THE JURY HINTED THEY MIGHT BE HUNG ON THE PREDATORY SEXUAL ASSAULT CHARGE SENDING A NOTE READING WE THE JURY REQUEST TO UNDERSTAND IF WE CAN BE HUNG ON ONE AND/OR THREE BUT UNANIMOUS ON THE OTHERS. BUT TODAY THE JURY CAME TO A UNANIMOUS DECISION. I CAN'T LOOK BEHIND THE JURY'S VERDICT OR HOW THEY ARRIVED AT THAT. WE HAVE TO RESPECT THAT PROCESS. BUT BY NO MEANS IS IT A STATEMENT AGAINST MISS SCIORRA OR AGAINST ANYTHING THAT SHE SAID IN COURT. Reporter: MOST JURORS WERE ESCORTED OUT OF THE COURTHOUSE AND DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING. WE CAUGHT UP WITH THE FOREMAN WHO SAID HE ISN'T READY TO TALK ABOUT HOW THEY REACHED THIS VERDICT JUST YET. HARVEY WEINSTEIN'S WALKER, A CONTROVERSY ALL ITS OWN, WAS WHEELED OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME WITHOUT THE DISGRACED MOVIE MOGUL BEHIND IT. HIS HANDS WHICH ONCE GRIPPED IT SO FIRMLY FOR SUPPORT NOW CUFFED IN THE FRONT OF HIS BODY. SOON TO BE HOLDING ONTO THE BARS IN FRONT OF HIM. AND WEINSTEIN WILL BE IN THE INFIRMARY AT RIKERS SINCE THE DEFENSE ARGUED HE'S BEEN UNDER THE CARE OF FIVE DOCTORS AND HAD AN UNSUCCESSFUL BACK SURGERY. SENTENCING WILL BE MARCH 11th. HE'S FACING UP TO 25 YEARS
