NEW YORK — Jurors in Harvey Weinstein’s New York rape trial were shown naked photographs of the former Hollywood producer on Tuesday over his lawyers’ objections. A sketch artist hired by Reuters saw a couple of the naked photos when they were passed to the jury and produced a drawing for the news agency. Weinstein did not respond to reporters’ questions about what he thought of jurors viewing naked photos of him. Mann testified that the alleged rape happened in the course of an “extremely degrading” relationship with Weinstein that lasted for years. In another email, sent in 2014, Mann asked Weinstein for a referral to get membership of the Soho House, an exclusive club.
