NEW YORK (AP) — Lawyers for Harvey Weinstein say he only deserves five years in prison for his New York City rape conviction after already suffering a "historic" fall from grace and serious health issues.
They made the argument in court papers filed Monday in advance of the 67-year-old former mogul's sentencing on Wednesday.
He was convicted last month on rape and sexual assault charges.
His lawyers had contended at trial that any sexual contact was consensual.
