Once one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers, Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty to charges of assaulting two women in New York. He faces life in prison if convicted on the most serious charge, predatory sexual assault.

Weinstein hobbled into court leaning on a walker, dressed in a black suit, with a member of his team holding his arm. Lead defense counsel Donna Rotunno followed close behind.
