Professor Cheryl Bader sat down with CBS New York to discuss the beginning of jury deliberations for the Harvey Weinstein trial.
As we wait for the jury to deliberate in the Harvey Weinstein case, I would love to be a fly on the wall and see how individual views about the #MeToo Movement plays into the jury decision making. Although Judge Burke cautioned them that this case must rise or fall on the merits of the evidence they heard in the courtroom, jurors are human and it will not be lost on them that their verdict will be seen as a referendum on the #MeToo Movement.
