Harvey Weinstein is seeking an earlier start to his sexual assault retrial, telling the judge, "I need to get out of this hellhole as quickly as possible."

Harvey Weinstein appeared disheveled during a court hearing Wednesday. The former film producer requested an earlier trial due to his health conditions, calling Rikers Island a "hellhole."

I need to get out of this hellhole as quickly as possible,” the ex-movie mogul, who is being held in New York’s Rikers Island, said at a recent hearing.
