Harvey Weinstein Retrial Jury Jessica Mann on Cross Say Who She Lived With Is Irrelevant

100 CENTRE STREET, April 29 -- Harvey Weinstein was in his wheelchair, this time with Marc Agnifilo, Teny Geragos and Jacob Kaplan as his lawyers, as opening arguments began before NYS Justice Curtis Farber on April 21. Inner City Press was there and live tweeted. So too on April 29, as cross began:

Teny Geragos: What were you doing in Florida? Jessica Mann: Living. Geragos: Where in the state? Mann: I don't think this is relevant to the crime that I am here for. Geragos: Who were you live with? Mann: Families. Christians. Someone I dated.
Teny Geragos: You bounced around. Then where did you go? Jessica Mann (to Justice Farbar) Do I have to answer this?  Oh. South Carolina, elsewhere Geragos: What were you doing in South Carolina? Mann: Go to seminary school

Teny Geragos: Who did you live with in South Carolina? Jessica Mann: A family I met through their son. Geragos: In Texas, what were you doing there? Mann: Texas I don't really remember. Geragos: Arizona? Mann: I did sketch and hair, too. Then I saw my dad in Vegas

Teny Geragos: Your father said, You have to live by my rules if you live with me? Jessica Mann: Yes. I was 24. I said, I want to go to LA. Geragos: He helped you? Mann: It was a fight.  Geragos: Where did you live in Orange County? Mann: I won't say

 [Jacob Kaplan whispers to Harvey Weinstein] Teny Geragos: Where in Orange County? Jessica Mann: Laguna Beach. Geragos: With who? Objection!  Mann: Someone I was dating. Geragos: It's nice there, right? Mann: Yes. 

Jessica Mann: After that relationship ended, he was helping me with acting. After that I was living in my car.  Teny Geragos: Who much did it cost? Mann: $5000. Geragos: You weren't living in the white Mercedes? Mann: No. Geragos: Do you know what year it was? No

Justice Farber: We're near the break. Teny Geragos: Who paid for your headshots? Jessica Mann: Probably my boyfriend. Tery Geragos: Good place to break. Justice Farber: Jurors, you may leave
