Convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein, who is currently in prison, has tested positive for the coronavirus. According to BuzzFeed News, an official briefed on the matter confirmed the news to their outlet.
The former Hollywood producer was found guilty last month of criminal sexual acts in the first degree related to accuser Miriam “Mimi” Haley and rape in the third degree related to accuser Jessica Mann.
He was acquitted of other charges, which included two charges of predatory sexual assault and one charge of rape in the first degree, according to USA Today. The predatory sexual assault charges, supported by actress Annabella Sciorra, could have sentenced Weinstein to life in prison.
Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years in prison for rape and sexual assault earlier this month.
