Mariska Hargitay Says Weinstein's Rape Conviction Was Overturned for One Reason
Briefly

Mariska Hargitay highlighted that the judge overturned Weinstein's conviction because 'too many women were allowed to speak,' emphasizing the power of women's voices in bringing change.
Hargitay emphasized the risk taken by the prosecution in allowing multiple women to testify, stating that 'Too many women speaking brings change. Too many women speaking shakes the Establishment.'
She linked Weinstein's overturned conviction to the strong backlash against the Me Too movement, indicating the power and impact of the voices advocating for victims of sexual assault and abuse.
The New York State Court of Appeals mentioned that the basis of the conviction was solely the testimony of three unrelated accusers, leading to the reversal of Weinstein's 2020 rape and sexual-assault conviction.
