(WPXI) A jury has once again convicted Harvey Weinstein of a sex crime. The Hollywood producer was on retrial after a New York appeals court overturned his previous verdict, The Associated Press reported. The jury had a split decision, convicting Weinstein of sexually assaulting Miriam Haley in 2006, Variety reported. He was acquitted of a second criminal sex act charge from an alleged incident involving Kaja Sokola. Sokola testified for about five days, The New York Times reported. All three women testified openly in court, Variety reported. The original trial was affected by “egregious” judicial rulings and prejudicial testimony, the appeals court ruled, tossing Weinstein’s conviction and accompanying 23-year prison sentence, the AP reported. He was facing charges that involved two women from his original case, along with additional allegations from a third woman who was not part of the first trial. He pleaded not guilty, denying he raped or sexually assaulted anyone.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. inflation picked up a bit last month as food costs rose, though overall inflation remained mostly tame. Consumer prices increased 2.4% last month compared to a year ago, according to a Labor Department report released Wednesday. That is up from a 2.3% yearly increase in April. Excluding the volatile food and energy categories, core prices rose 2.8% for the third straight month. The figures suggest inflation remains stubbornly above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, which makes it less likely that the central bank will cut its key short-term interest rate.

LONDON (AP) — Chinese state media say that the U.S. and China have agreed in principle on a framework to carry out an agreement they reached on resolving their trade disputes last month. The announcement came at the end of two days of talks Monday and Tuesday in London. The agreement had been shaken by a series of disputes in the ensuing weeks, leading to a phone call last week between President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to try to calm the waters. The two countries announced May 12 they had agreed to a 90-day suspension of most of the 100%-plus tariffs they had imposed on each other.

Elon Musk stepped back from his explosive feud with U.S. President Donald Trump, writing on X that he regrets some of his posts about his onetime ally and that they went “too far.” Early Wednesday morning, he posted “I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far.” Musk earlier deleted a post in which he claimed without evidence that the government was concealing information about the president’s association with infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. On Sunday, Trump told NBC’s Kristen Welker that he has no desire to repair their relationship and warned that Musk could face “serious consequences” if he tries to help Democrats in upcoming elections.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles police have swiftly enforced a downtown curfew, making arrests moments after it took effect, deploying officers on horseback and using crowd control projectiles to break up a group of hundreds demonstrating against President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown. Hours after the curfew went into effect Tuesday night, many of the protesters had dispersed, although small sporadic confrontations continued. Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom earlier accused Trump of drawing a “military dragnet” across the nation’s second-largest city with his escalating use of the National Guard. He also deployed Marines, though none were seen on the streets Tuesday. Trump ordered the deployment of nearly 5,000 troops, including National Guard and Marines, to LA.

FAYETTE COUNTY, Pa. — (WPXI) – The body of an unidentified woman who died nearly four decades ago has been exhumed in Fayette County to hopefully give closure to the case. Members of Pennsylvania State Police Uniontown and the Fayette County Coroner’s Office exhumed the body Monday morning, according to the Fayette County District Attorney’s Office. The woman died in a traffic crash in Springhill Township in 1986. After being exhumed, the body was taken to the Indiana County Coroner’s Office, officials say. The woman’s DNA will be collected and uploaded to various databases in an effort to determine her identity. “Thank you to Trooper Sigwalt, Coroner Baker and all of the folks involved for their efforts to hopefully bring long-awaited closure to a grieving family,” the district attorney’s office said. According to Pennsylvania State Police, this is the first exhumation in the area in around 10 years. Jane Doe previously had a hair sample collected in 1986, but it was insufficient for analysis.

A teen who cooperated with prosecutors in landing convictions against two co-defendants in the shooting death of a Washington woman has had all charges against him dropped. According to the Observer-Reporter, charges were dropped against 18 year old Tyriq Moss Tuesday afternoon. He was initially charged with homicide, attempted homicide and other charges in the 2022 drive-by shooting that killed 58 year old Kristen Barfield outside her Ridge Avenue home. Moss testified against Brandon Allen who was convicted of attempted homicide, aggravated assault and other charges following a jury trial. He was also to testify against Juan Worthey III but he entered a guilty plea to third-detree murder prior to his trial. Washington County Deputy District Attorney John Friedman say they agreed to drop the case against Moss since he cooperated with the prosecution and was not involved in the shooting.
