harvey weinstein�*s conviction in california is also being appealed. his legal team are looking into what implications the new york ruling could have here. emma vardy, bbc news, los angeles. the first woman to go public with allegations against harvey weinstein was actress ashleyjudd. she says a top court overturning his 2020 conviction is "an act of institutional betrayal." she's been speaking to my colleague caitriona perry, who asked whether she would like to see weinstein re—tried. you know, what's important to know is that a courtroom is not a safe environment for survivors of male sexual violence. they can be very traumatising spaces. you know, the most dangerous place in america for a woman is in her home. we know the men who assault and rape and murder us. and a lot ofjudges are still catching up to that reality. and juries don't necessarily know that information either. we still think of rape as stranger rape as someone who jumps us in an alley. and so a courtroom isn't necessarily even if harvey were retried and convicted in the state of ne
