Judge Kevin McGrath ordered Weinstein to be released on a $1 million cash bail at his arraignment on Friday.
He was also ordered to wear a monitoring device that tracks his location at all times and had to surrender his passport to prevent him from travelling overseas.
“This defendant used his position, money, and power to lure young women into situations where he was able to violate them sexually,” prosecutor Joan Illuzzi said during the arraignment.
Whats the big deal about sex that people keep misbehaving all the time because of common sex.
