NEW YORK (AP) — Harvey Weinstein 's rape retrial ended in a mistrial Friday after the jury deadlocked.

While the former Hollywood mogul has been convicted of other sex crimes on two US coasts and remains behind bars, the mistrial leaves the New York rape charge in limbo after three trials.A majority-male Manhattan jury had been weighing whether Weinstein raped Jessica Mann, a hairstylist and actor, in 2013. Weinstein's lawyers argued that the encounter was consensual. It happened during a fraught relationship between the then-married Weinstein and the decades-younger Mann.The signs of jury stalemate emerged a few hours into the third day of deliberations. Jurors sent a note saying they "have concluded that they cannot reach" a unanimous verdict.Judge Curtis Farber instructed the group to continue deliberating. That's generally what New York judges do at least the first time a jury says it's stuck.Jurors then returned to their closed-door discussions.

An appeals court overturned his 2020 New York conviction on charges that involved Mann and another accuser. At a retrial last year, jury deliberations broke down amid infighting on Mann's portion of the case, leading to this current retrial. Weinstein is charged with one count of rape in the third degree.
