Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein has been hospitalized following alarming blood test results that necessitated immediate medical attention. Legal representatives of Weinstein, who is already known to be suffering from numerous health issues, confirmed that he will remain hospitalized until stable.

Weinstein, 72, was previously sentenced to 23 years in prison in New York after being convicted of sexually assaulting former production assistant Miriam Haley in 2006 and raping aspiring actress Jessica Mann in 2013. These convictions are part of broader allegations, with over 80 women accusing him of sexual misconduct.

Currently, Weinstein faces additional legal consequences beyond his New York sentencing, including a separate 16-year sentence in California for similar offenses. The ongoing legal trials further illustrate the extent of Weinstein's criminal actions within the industry.
