At Harvey Weinstein’s trial, a big role for other accusers

NEW YORK — In his former life as a Hollywood big shot, Harvey Weinstein knew the importance of a good supporting role. That’s why prosecutors want it,” said Matthew Galluzzo, a defense lawyer and former Manhattan sex crimes prosecutor who’s not involved in Weinstein’s case. The judge overseeing Weinstein’s case, James Burke, ruled before trial that Wulff, Dunning and the third actress could all testify without unfairly damaging the defense. Last summer, the state’s appeals court reversed a man’s child sex abuse conviction because it found that the other uncharged allegations prosecutors included in their case “did not bear a sufficient similarity.” In Weinstein’s case, “the defense has a lot of arguments to make here should there be a conviction, and the question will be whether the courts are willing to change the law -- whether they will redefine where the border is,” DerOhannesian said. To Galluzzo, Weinstein’s case raises questions about not only when it’s fair to allow “prior bad act” witnesses, but to what extent.
