  • Harvey Weinstein buried his face in his hands after learning he would be extradited to Los Angeles.
  • A judge ruled the disgraced movie mogul must face sexual assault charges in California.
  • The moment was captured on a court livestream on Tuesday.

A court livestream captured the moment when convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein learned that he will be extradited from a New York prison to Los Angeles to stand another trial on multiple sexual assault charges.

The 69-year-old disgraced film mogul buried his head into his hands soon after an Erie County judge made the ruling Tuesday, as seen on a court livestream.

Weinstein is currently serving a 23-year sentence at the upstate New York Wende Correctional Facility on convictions of third-degree rape and first-degree criminal sexual act.

Erie County Court Judge Kenneth Case ordered that Weinstein be extradited to Los Angeles in July. Weinstein has been indicted on 11 counts of sexual assault involving five women in Los Angeles County.
