NEW YORK (AP) — One-time movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was returned to a New York City jail in what his publicist said Tuesday was the result from a published report claiming he was getting VIP treatment during his 10-day stay at a hospital.
The publicist, Juda Engelmeyer, said Weinstein was moved late Monday from Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan to an infirmary at the city’s Rikers Island jail complex.
The move came hours after The City, a nonprofit news outlet, reported that Weinstein was housed in a private room in the hospital’s intensive care unit with a television, phone and a bathroom rather than a separate floor where inmates normally reside.
Engelmeyer disputed the account, saying Weinstein “wasn’t getting preferential or VIP treatment” and wasn’t housed in what could be characterized as a hospital suite.

It’s a monumental achievement for the Knights, marking the earliest sellout of their ticket allotment in school history. This is the fourth consecutive season and fifth overall since 2019 in which the school has achieved a sellout, a testament to the passionate fan base.
UCF athletics director Terry Mohajir celebrated the accomplishment on social media Tuesday.
“Fastest @UCF_Football season-ticket sellout & fifth one since 2019!!

DENVER (AP) — A bill to ban the sale and transfer of semi-automatic firearms was nixed in Colorado’s Democratic-controlled Legislature on Tuesday as lawmakers pressed forward with a slew of other gun control bills on the 25th anniversary year of the Columbine High School massacre.
The western state has a deep history with firearms that is pockmarked by some of the most high-profile mass shootings nationwide.
The federal judge overseeing former President Donald Trump’s classified documents case issued an order Tuesday postponing the May 20 trial date. The order did not set a new date.
U. S. District Judge Aileen Cannon wrote in the five-page order that the date will be reset by a separate order.
“The Court also determines that finalization of a trial date at this juncture — before resolution
of the myriad and interconnected pre-trial and CIPA (Classified Information Procedures Act) issues remaining and forthcoming — would be imprudent and inconsistent with the Court’s duty to fully and fairly consider the various pending pre-trial motions before the Court, critical CIPA issues, and additional pretrial and trial preparations necessary to present this case to a jury.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — An independent review of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. ‘s workplace culture describes an environment that fostered “hostile, abusive, unprofessional, or inappropriate conduct,” and questions whether the agency’s chairman is credible to lead the agency through a cultural transformation.
The report released Tuesday by law firm Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton outlines incidents of stalking, harassment, homophobia and other violations of employment regulations.
The incidents span from field offices to headquarters in Washington, and ”arose within a workplace culture that is ‘misogynistic,’ ‘patriarchal,’ ‘insular,’ and ‘outdated’ — a ‘good ol’ boys’ club where favoritism is common, wagons are circled around managers, and senior executives with well-known reputations for pursuing romantic relations with subordinates enjoy long careers without any apparent consequence,” the report states.
More than 500 workers reported incidents of harassment, discrimination and other issues.
Examples of the worker complaints included a woman stalked by a coworker who was continually harassed even after complaining about his behavior; a field office supervisor referring to gay men as “little girls”; and a female field examiner describing receiving a picture of an FDIC senior examiner’s private parts.
The report comes after the Wall Street Journal last November published an investigation that outlined details of the agency’s workplace culture.
