Quick Glance: New York Overturns Harvey Weinstein's 2020 Rape Conviction
- New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, citing prejudicial rulings by the judge in the landmark #MeToo trial.
- The State Court of Appeals ruling reopens a painful chapter in America's reckoning with sexual misconduct by powerful figures, ordering a new trial where his accusers might have to relive their traumas.
- Weinstein, 72, has been serving a 23-year sentence in a New York prison following his conviction, but will remain imprisoned due to another rape conviction in Los Angeles in 2022.
- This decision marks another setback for #MeToo, following the US Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal in the Bill Cosby case, where his sexual assault conviction was overturned by a Pennsylvania court.

Quick Glance: South Korean Woman Falls Victim to $50k Elon Musk Deepfake Scam
- A South Korean woman was convinced to invest 70 million won ($50,770) after watching a fabricated video portraying someone who looked like Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, as reported locally on Tuesday.
- Jeong Ji-sun, identified by the pseudonym at KBS, disclosed her experience as a victim of a romance scam on KBS's 'In-Depth 60 Minutes.' During the episode on April 19, Jeong narrated her initial interactions with the scammer posing as Musk.
- Jeong's initial hesitations dissipated swiftly. The scammer forwarded his identification and a workplace photo to Jeong. Moreover, he discussed aspects such as his children and commuting to Tesla or SpaceX via helicopter. He further mentioned his sporadic outreach to fans.
- The program highlighted the prevalent use of AI in these romance scams. The swindler engaged in a form of deception known as 'pig butchering,' as explained by the producer. This approach involves gradually enticing victims to increase their contributions to an apparently legitimate investment before the perpetrator vanishes.
