Appearing in court in a wheelchair, Weinstein denied the allegations but apologised to "anyone I may have hurt by my actions".

"Look, man, I didn't rape anyone, but if my actions may have somehow hurt someone in a way that makes them feel like they were raped (totally weren't tho lol), then I apologize."
