- Jury selection for Harvey Weinstein's retrial on a rape charge is scheduled to begin Tuesday in New York City.
- The trial will focus on a single accusation from hairstylist and actor Jessica Mann, who alleges Weinstein raped her in a Manhattan hotel in 2013.
- Weinstein denies all accusations, stating in court that he 'acted wrongly, but I never assaulted anyone,' and his lawyers maintain all sexual encounters were consensual.
- This retrial follows the overturning of his initial New York convictions and a subsequent retrial last year, where he was convicted of forcing oral sex on Miriam Haley but acquitted of other charges.
- Weinstein, 73, who uses a wheelchair and suffers from health problems, faces a potential four-year sentence if convicted in this case, in addition to a pending sentence for his conviction involving Haley.
