The jury of seven men and five womenconvicted Weinsteinof raping Mann at a Midtown East hotel in early 2013.
He was also found not guilty of first-degree rape for the attack on Mann.
Weinsteinssentencingis scheduled for March 11.
Shortly after the verdict, one juror told Vulture: It was very stressful and emotional.
We caught up with the same juror this week to get more details on what led to the verdict.
He agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity.
So [Sciorra], maybe we believed [her], but this is a 27-year-old story.
Was there any breakdown with gender, or anything like that, among the jurors?No, zero.
Race and gender, zero bias.
Were you surprised that there was no bias?Yes.
How did the jury view Weinsteinswalker?The walker was entirely genuine in our eyes.
The guy had back surgery two weeks before the trial.
We didnt see it we walked into court, the walker was next to the table.
If anybody was seeing the walker, they were watching the news.
We were the last people in, the first people out.
I never saw him stand up once.
It had zero bearing on our decision, our collective verdict.
Our job was to make the decision based on what was in front of us.
It had zero effect on our decision making.
Did anything in particular stick out to the jury when it came to voting guilty on Mimi Haleyi?
Was there something about her testimony that made you believe her?Her interactions with him.
She turned down two advances and a massage and a trip to Paris before the incident.
Someone who is mentally ill or incapable of giving consent falls into that category.
So, you know, she didnt physically resist and he didnt physically restrain her with forcible compulsion.
A reasonable person would have known there was no consenting.
I thought it was incredibly distasteful for them to show that to anybody.
Everybody knows what he looks like, you know?
I did not need to see him like that.
It really had no place in the court, and had no effect on our decision-making.
It was just distasteful.
What was the jurys impression of Weinsteins lawyerDonna Rotunno?
How did she come across?
You know, people just rub people certain ways.
Theyre clearly highly intelligent, highly competent people.
Shes got a job to do, and she does it really well.
So I was impressed by just about everybody on both sides, the prosecution as well.
