Harvey Weinstein Sentenced to 23 Years in Prison for Sexual Assault
*The Grind*
Disgraced Hollywood mega-producer Harvey Weinstein was sentenced to 23
years in prison Wednesday morning, on one count of sexual assault in
the first degree and one count of rape in the third degree - nearly
the maximum sentenced possible for Weinstein?s crimes. "Weinstein,"
the Associated Press reported, "who has been accused of violating
scores of women, was convicted last month of raping a woman in a New
York City hotel room in 2013 and forcibly performing oral sex on
another woman at his apartment in 2006. He faced a maximum of 29 years
in prison."
*The Details*
The possible 29 years included up to 25 years on one charge and 4
years on the other. "For his conviction on the first-degree count of
criminal sexual act, Weinstein was given 20 years in prison plus five
years of supervised release," the Hollywood Reporter said Wednesday.
"On the other convicted charge, third-degree rape, he was given three
years in prison. The judge decided to make the sentences consecutive,
rather than concurrent." Weinstein will also have to register as a sex
offender. On Tuesday, Weinstein's attorneys sent a letter to Judge
James Burke, who delivered Weinstein's sentence. In it, they begged
for leniency for the former power player, arguing that Weinstein had
suffered enough because of his unprecedented fall from grace - a fall
from grace that he, himself, orchestrated. Read more...

Bernie Sanders Adviser: 'The God Damn Plane Has Crashed into the
Mountain'
*The Grind*
One senior adviser to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has fallen into
despair over his dwindling chances of winning the Democratic
presidential nomination following another round of losses on "Mini
Super Tuesday." Former Vice President Joe Biden delivered a major blow
to Sanders with wins in four primary contests: Idaho, Mississippi,
Missouri, and Michigan, the evening's most important
race. Sanders only managed to win North Dakota, while Washington's
results remain delayed.
*The Details*
"The god damn plane has crashed into the mountain," the unnamed
Sanders aide, borrowing a line from the 1998 film The Big
Lebowski, told Yahoo News. Sanders opted against delivering a speech
to supporters after he lost Michigan and instead flew home to Vermont.
Earlier in the day, the 78-year-old canceled a rally in Cleveland,
Ohio, due to public health concerns regarding the coronavirus. Biden
now holds a delegate count of 823 to Sanders' 663. A total of 1,991 is
needed to secure the Democratic nomination at the party's July
convention in Milwaukee. Read more...
