(NewsNation) — Prosecutors say new indictments against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein are possible, indicating accusers who were not ready to come forward before may be ready to do so now.
Weinstein’s 2020 sexual assault convictions were overturned by an appeals court, and prosecutors have begun efforts to retry the case.
Appearing before a judge Wednesday, both prosecutors and the defense began working out legal issues related to the retrial. Jessica Mann, one of the accusers in the first trial, has agreed to testify again. Now, it seems other women may also be ready to come forward.
New charges could be filed in June, and the judge has ordered both sides not to speak to the media about the case.
Weinstein is still incarcerated on another sexual assault conviction in Los Angeles.
