A Manhattan judge declared a mistrial on Friday after jurors deadlocked for a third time on a rape charge against Harvey Weinstein, stemming from allegations that he raped aspiring actress Jessica Mann at a Manhattan hotel in 2013.

Judge Curtis Farber said it was "quite clear" that jurors were "hopelessly deadlocked" and dismissed the panel after they sent a note stating no one would change their position. The jury had deliberated for three days.

Mann, 40, testified over five days that Weinstein raped her after she repeatedly refused, while the defense argued the encounter was consensual and highlighted friendly messages she wrote to Weinstein shortly afterward. Weinstein did not testify.

Harvey Weinstein's repeated trials reflect the justice system's determination to pursue accountability for survivors of sexual assault during the #MeToo era. Despite this minor setback, the legal and moral reality is that Weinstein abused his power and should remain imprisoned for the rest of his life — another trial would realistically produce a different outcome.

The evidence against Weinstein was always shaky — warm emails, continued meetups and years of leaning on him for career support don't paint the picture of a victim. Mann's own actions after the alleged assault undercut her account. A consensual relationship built on mutual benefit is not a crime, and the defense made that case compellingly.

The repeated retrials expose weaknesses in prosecuting high-profile sexual assault cases, where celebrity influence, media attention and conflicting testimony complicate justice. Mann should not have to recount her allegations against Weinstein alone for a fourth time in court. Additional accusers should be allowed to describe similar allegations against the sexual predator to demonstrate a broader pattern of abuse and strengthen prosecutors' case.
