NYC Police Again Looking Into Weinstein Case
NEW YORK (AP) -- New York City police detectives are taking a fresh look into sexual assault allegations against Harvey Weinstein.
Police spokesman Peter Donald said Thursday that investigators are reviewing police files to see if any women previously reported being assaulted or harassed by the media mogul.
So far, no past complaints have been found, other than one well-known case that prompted an investigation in 2015.
The department is also encouraging anyone with information to come forward.
A law enforcement official says detectives also plan to contact women who spoke about their encounters with Weinstein in a New Yorker article this week.
The official wasn't authorized to speak publicly on an ongoing probe and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
Weinstein has denied any nonconsensual sexual conduct with any women.
