Hollywood movie producer Harvey Weinstein has been found guilty of rape and two counts of sexual assault against an Italian actress and model.

After a month-long trial and nine days of deliberations, the three guilty counts mark the second conviction of the onetime Hollywood kingmaker.

The jury also acquitted the 70-year-old or could not reach a verdict in the cases of the three other accusers.

Weinstein is already serving a 23-year prison sentence after being convicted of sex crimes by a court in New York City.
