Harvey Weinstein Back At Bellevue Hospital After Complaining Of Chest Pains
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Harvey Weinstein is back at Bellevue Hospital after complaining of chest pains.
The disgraced Hollywood mogul was sentenced Wednesday to 23 years in prison.
After the hearing, Weinstein returned to Rikers Island but was later transferred to the hospital.
Last month, the 67-year-old was convicted of raping Jessica Mann in 2013 and forcing a sex act on Miriam "Mimi" Haley in 2006.
The jury found him guilty of third-degree rape and first-degree criminal sexual act, but not guilty of two predatory sexual assault counts and first-degree rape.

Weinstein and his accusers spoke during Wednesday's emotional hearing.
He claimed he had "wonderful times with these people," and "there are so many people – thousands of people – who would say great things about me."
Mann called him a "known offender," adding she's "forced to carry that experience" until she dies. She asked the judge to give her "the gift of knowing where Harvey is at all times."
Haley spoke through tears, saying Weinstein "crushed a part of my spirit."
