Harvey Weinstein has been transferred from Rikers Island to a New York City hospital after a judge approved his request to remain there during his retrial on sex crime charges.
Judge Paul Goetz late Thursday ordered that Weinstein be moved to the prison ward at Bellevue Hospital so he can receive “necessary medical treatment,” according to the Associated Press.
Goetz’s order will remain in effect until next Thursday, with a hearing scheduled to further discuss the matter, AP reported.
