An attorney for Harvey Weinstein said the former film producer was 'upbeat' as he remains in Bellevue Hospital

NEW YORK - Former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was in good spirits on Tuesday, as he accepted visitors while under police guard at a Manhattan hospital, his lawyer said, despite having been convicted a day earlier of sexual assault and rape.

Aidala said Weinstein was “somewhat flabbergasted by the verdict” and “cautiously optimistic” about his eventual appeal. “I almost feel emboldened by Mr. Weinstein’s spirits and his desire to continue to fight these charges,” Aidala added. The actress Ellen Barkin, a friend of Sciorra, tweeted on Tuesday: “Convicted rapist harvey weinstein is still not in jail. He is in a private suite in Bellevue hospital. This is not what the jury had in mind.”Weinstein’s guilty verdict was a milestone for the #MeToo movement, which was fueled by his case starting in late 2017.

He's upbeat because he knows that the 'sick old man' card might actually work.

No way he fells upbeat about anything !

Upbeat? wtf

Upbeat? So get him to Rikers. He should be unconscious if he needs a hospital bed.

Stop portraying this “Convicted Rapist” as the victim He is not the victim here

He is a disgusting individual.

zen4ever2us He sure got better quick and didn’t even need his walker

Straight to the hospital, huh? Looks like someone’s white privilege is intact.

Cool. Send him some escorts

Weinstein hides in hospital as fears for his bumhole escalate.

Delete this.

I hope the visitors had every orifice and then some searched by enthusiastic officers 'just doin their job, maaan'.

Your outlet shows how much of a critical eye you lack & how much you savor giving this narcissistic monster a headline he so craves

Did any of his visitors give him some vaseline or atleast soap on-a-rope

He was upbeat....let me say that I think they are telling porkies. Can you imagine chatting with him in his hospital bed. Lawyer :So Harvey how you feeling? HW : Well you know, not bad considering, Always good to put a smile on your face and see what this lovely day brings.

No wonder the media get villified for their content. Who the fk cares how rapist Harvey Weinstein is “feeling”?

“upbeat” ... Hmmm. Let’s ask him after his first shower with Dre and Lex.

so he can go to jail now, good

*Headline Edit: Harvey Weinstein, orchestrated an anxiety attack & due to his white privilege was given a suite in Bellevue Hospital, however not in the psych ward” *

A fatal case of jailitis....Hey Harvey, Rikers is calling and Bubba is your new roommate

Drop already!

Only reason he’s having chest pains is because he’s about to feel some ass pains while his behind bars😂.

Those pains are from pushing that walker around that he doesn’t need.

Funny how they all develop life threatening diseases that srop them from being incarcerated at extremely convenient times.

And this year's Oscar goes to Harvey

Hahaha...he now knows the fear of getting raped...

Oh fucking well

Harvey Weinstein is a convicted rapist & an inmate in the custody of NY DOC but got a private suite at Bellevue with his family around him because of a panic attack. Sounds about White.

Put him in jail! What a sorry wimp.

Lol... he was in the acting business

They can continue his treatment in jail.

🎶 Scratching and Surviving, Good Times, Hanging in a Chow Line, Good Times 🎶

Lock him up

You mean convicted rapist, Harvey Weinstein?

Oh God. So pathetic.

Look at the photos of HarveyWeinstein and barackobama Oprahs2020VisionTour romanpolanski . Plenty more. Jewish

Oh poo poo. He’s having an anxiety attack. Now he knows what those women have felt all these years.

Yeah he’s going to get Epstein’d from his walker

Wait, what?

Yeah ok

FAKER!!

Weinstein hides in hospital as fears for his bumhole escalate.

Do not overlook the miracle that took place when Weinstein was suddenly able to get around without his walker. Praise the Lord! Expect the walker to return in L.A.!

Bellevue is where they hold the insane.

Does Hallmark make a 'You were found guilty of sex crimes and the thought of jail makes you sick but chin up' card?

Amazing. miramax company run by Mr W would go on to produce anti-catholic movies Dogma, Priest and 30 yrs later...

Here. I fixed it: 'Harvey Weinstein remained in Bellevue Hospital, where he is arranging to pay millions to a nurse to euthanize him in the next 48 hours so they don't do a 'Whitey Bulger' on him in Rikers.' Bookmark this post. HarveyWeinstein HarveyWeinsteinGuilty

lock him up!

Did he die yet? Asking for millions of women everywhere.

I hope the Ambulance stopped off for coffee enroute!

He knows what he’s doing, that will keep out of prison a little bit longer, maybe he hopes the Clinton’s will “Epstein”him

Classic narcissism

These liberal snakes actually believe they’re untouchable and are shocked when they’re found guilty of their horrific deeds. I guess the devil didn’t keep his part of the deal with them. The law is coming and justice will finally be served HillaryClinton will be next! TRUMP 2020

Fake walker, now fake heart issues. I'm sure he has consulted as to what conditions he can claim that aren't objectively checkable easily. Any claim of heart will get you observation at least....he's just delaying the inevitable.

Harvey doesn’t have the balls to go to prison…

All the testosterone to rape women but lost his balls when it comes to owning up to his actions... 😂

MeToo

Boo f-ing hoo.

Must be very stressful.

Did he experience all those complications while sexually assaulting his victims? Why now?

Anyone else would have been booted out after 5 hours in the ER!

Damn the metoo movement It isn't the best way to go. 👎👎💀 damn

There are doc in jail also. Be a man and go take it up the ass Harvey.......

Playing sick to get an easy sentencing.

drama queen

Absolute garbage... and this is his get out of jail free card...

As much as the world would be improved by his dying immediately, it'd do more for the cause (stopping rapists) to have him waste away in prison for a while as an example first.

WeinsteinDidntKillHimself ?

Faker

Who’s next Master?

Huh? Anyone else would be in jail & the key would have already been thrown out.

He looked just fine though. Already cheating. Send him to Rikers.

Sounds like stress raped his heart.

ok. is that closer to the feeling his victims could have had? if he indeed had such pains.

Fake

what an ass - he reminds me of Barisan Nasional

I love how all these guys that get involved in this type of behavior all think they will never get caught up with...KARMA is a Mirror!

Next up: motion for house arrest cause he's too sick to be in prison?

Tick tock

That’s why he’s upbeat because he is laid up in the hospital instead of behind bars.

Upbeat & sick? What a fraud? Typical Weinstein? Weinstein & Epstein? What is wrong with these Steins? Where do they come from? Hell?

Cuz he is the scum of the earth trying to stay out of jail!!

Wait till he gets to federal %* you in the $$ prison. He won’t have pretty nurses taking care of him in there

could somebody just inject air into his IV and be done with it already please.

That's because he's at Bellevue!

Sure.

I want to ❤️every reply in this thread but Twitter doesn’t want people to like anything.

Snip it from Michelle OBAMA speech, “Harvey Weinstein is a wonderful human being and a good friend”. Notice Goldberg sharing Obama’s characterization of Harvey Weinstein!

Oh well thank goodness! Thoughts and prayers go out to the rapist...

Weinstein: Upbeat now, then beat up in prison.

What? Who gives a fuck?!

From upbeat in hospital, to beat up in prison.

Why is this news? No one gives a fuck

🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🐠

Who cares how Harvey is doing; ask how his victims are doing! Get your reporting priorities straight.

Because everyone cares about the mental state of a convicted rapist?

you can only avoid jail for so long with a panic attack

Put him in jail

Can we quit hearing about this creep?

hospital? what happened to prison?

In heat? Oh!

'upeat' Hahaha... This dude one step away from pulling out his shoe laces.

Well of course he's upbeat, he's not over at Rikers right now.

Column: Harvey Weinstein's convictions show that rape is rape, no matter his wealth or powerHarvey Weinstein's rape and sexual assault convictions prove that rape is a crime, not an HR issue or a cultural talking point. Ok. When has it not been rape, when rape occurs. Who writes these headline for the LA Times. Dr. SEUSS. Y'all could have showed him walking normally while in handcuff😕 We still have a long way to go as a society. It took a massive effort to bring him down when many people knew who he was. Wealth and power may not keep you above the law indefinitely, but it still works for a long, long time.
