Sounds about right for Owens defending another convicted or accused sexual assaulter against women.

Harvey Weinstein jury selection is slow going. Two days in, and no jurors have been picked yet. They just lost another potential juror, an investment banker who said:"Defense counsel asked my reaction to the defendant's name, and the first word that came to my head was 'pig.'"

Attorneys delivered opening statements on Wednesday in the New York retrial of Harvey Weinstein, with prosecutors accusing the disgraced film producer of using his immense power in Hollywood to sexually harass and abuse three women.
"The defendant wanted their bodies, and the more they resisted, the more forceful he got," Assistant District Attorney Shannon Lucey told jurors on Wednesday.
In his third trial in five years, Weinstein is accused of sexually abusing a former television production assistant, an aspiring actress and a model.

She gestured at him (does that mean the middle finger?) and he had a medical episode? He can't even take a gesture?? Right. The "poor pitiful me" act continues, IMO.

Jury drama.
apnews.com
The foreperson of the jury deliberating in Harvey Weinstein’s #MeToo retrial told the judge Monday that some jurors are ganging up, prodding others to change their minds and citing information that wasn’t part of the trial.
“They fight together, and I don’t like it,” the foreperson said, according to defense lawyer Arthur Aidala, in a closed-door conversation with Judge Curtis Farber and the prosecution and defense teams. Aidala later said in court — without any jurors in earshot — that the foreperson indicated that he’s made a decision and didn’t want to change his mind.
.....
Farber denied the mistrial request but brought jurors in for a reminder that they must only weigh evidence presented during the trial and must disregard anything else they may know about the former movie mogul. At the jury’s request, he also went over the definition of reasonable doubt and rules about conducting deliberations — requests that suggested they remained far apart on a verdict.
Foreperson’s complaints signal a divided jury at Harvey Weinstein’s #MeToo retrial

You make a really important point about how much cultural and legal awareness around sexual harassment has evolved over the past few decades. The fact that so many survivors couldn’t speak up earlier—whether out of fear, power imbalances, or lack of systemic support—highlights why movements like #MeToo have been so critical in shedding light on these systemic issues.
The Weinstein case, along with the stories from Corey Feldman and others, underscores how widespread this behavior was (and in some corners, still is). It’s telling that so many of these stories were ‘open secrets’ for years, which makes the courage of those who came forward even more significant. While progress has been made, there’s clearly still work to be done to hold perpetrators accountable and protect vulnerable people in all industries.
Thanks for bringing nuance to the conversation—it’s a reminder that these cases aren’t just about one person, but about deeper cultural patterns that need addressing.

Weinstein jury pores over accuser's emails during deliberations

NEW YORK — Jurors in Harvey Weinsteinn's sex crimes retrial appeared to be focusing on one of his three accusers as deliberations stretched into a fourth day Tuesday, with no further sign of interpersonal tensions that flared earlier.
The jury had requested to start off Tuesday with electronic copies of emails and other evidence pertaining to Jessica Mann — the accuser with arguably the most complex history with Weinstein. Jurors deliberated through the morning without sending any further requests.
