YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHarvey Weinstein's legal team is vowing to appeal his conviction. Defense attorney Arthur Aidala spoke briefly Monday after the jury convicted Weinstein of rape and sexual assault, saying:
"As sure as I'm a bald man, we will be appealing."
Defense attorney Donna Rotunno says the "fight is not over."
She says Weinstein is "disappointed" with the verdict, but that he "took it like a man."
Weinstein was immediately taken into custody and was led out of the courthouse in handcuffs.
Aidala says Weinstein will be going to "more of a hospital than a jail" after the judge granted the defense's request to give him medical attention.
His lawyers say Weinstein had an unsuccessful back surgery recently.
