NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – Harvey Weinstein, who was recently imprisoned after being convicted of sexual assault, has reportedly tested positive for the coronavirus.
State prison officials told the Niagara Gazette that the 68-year-old is in isolation at the Wende Correctional Facility in Alden, New York, after testing positive.
Officials said they believe Weinstein already had the virus before he was imprisoned at the facility after leaving Rikers Island.
According to the newspaper, he is one of two inmates at the prison who tested positive.
Weinstein is serving a 23-year sentence after being convicted in federal court in New York just weeks ago.
