Harvey Weinstein is fearing for his life. The convicted sex offender doesn't want to begin his second sex crimes trial in Los Angeles due to the surging numbers of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the state.
The district attorney in Los Angeles wants Weinstein brought to LA but his lawyer, Norman Effman, told TMZ the former movie producer is going to fight the demand.
Effman told the outlet that Weinstein believes his health is at risk if he spends time in jail in LA. He's already currently serving a 23-year sentence in New York.
While at the Wende Correctional Facility in upstate New York, Weinstein tested positive for coronavirus in March and recovered.
