"Some women who are unwilling to testify during the first trial may be willing to testify this time out. She (Assistant District Attorney Nicole Blumberg) said prosecutors will have a better idea of things when the court meets again in July.

STORYLINE:
Manhattan prosecutors have told a judge they are evaluating new claims of sexual misconduct made against Harvey Weinstein.
Assistant District Attorney Nicole Blumberg has said during a court hearing Wednesday that additional people have come forward with assault claims and prosecutors are currently assessing which fall under the statute of limitations.
She says some potential survivors that were not ready to step forward during Weinstein’s first trial may now be willing to testify, and prosecutors could potentially seek a new indictment against Weinstein ahead of his scheduled retrial on rape charges later this year.
Weinstein says he is innocent.
