New York’s Court of Appeals has overturned the 2020 rape conviction of former movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, finding that the trial judge improperly allowed testimony from women not involved in the case. Meanwhile, former Instagram fraudster Jebara Igbara aka "Jay Mazini" has been sentenced to seven years in prison for swindling millions from Muslims online. Additionally, New York City’s annual Pay Disparity Report reveals that workers of color earn only 84 cents for every dollar paid to white employees. Also, Governor Hochul’s newly signed state budget includes a measure called the ‘good cause’ eviction law, which extends eviction protections by requiring landlords to show ‘good cause’ for non-renewal of leases or evictions. However, the law has various exceptions, excluding hundreds of thousands of renters statewide. WNYC’s David Brand discusses the details with Sean Carlson. Finally, as National Poetry Month concludes, we are featuring poems from our listeners. Here’s one from Ksenia Novikova of Gravesend, Brooklyn.
