Harvey Weinstein's rape retrial is opening in New York

Jurors are set to hear opening statements in Harvey Weinstein’s New York rape retrial.

Starting Tuesday, a new jury will get its first look at a case that remains unresolved nearly eight years after the former movie tycoon’s arrest.

Weinstein has been convicted of some sexual assault charges and acquitted of others in trials on two U.S. coasts.

But the rape charge involving an 2013 encounter in a Manhattan hotel has lingered, due to an overturned conviction followed by a jury deadlock.

Weinstein has pleaded not guilty and has said that he never assaulted anyone.
