Harvey Weinstein trial: Potential juror facing jail time for tweet; Gigi Hadid dismissed

NEW YORK – After a week's worth of questionnaires, dismissals and supermodel summons, jury selection is now in the homestretch in the Harvey Weinstein case.

But one potential juror is facing a possible jail time on a contempt charge after he allegedly posted about his summons on Twitter in violation of Judge James Burke's orders.

"There’s one person who did clearly violate the court’s (order)," Burke said asking for the man to be brought into court. In walked a bearded, middle-aged man with glasses and wearing a light green coat.

"I am asking you to return to this courtroom… to show cause for why I should not hold you in contempt" and facing 30 days in jail, Burke said.
