Disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was allowed to remain free on bail after pleading not guilty to new criminal charges that he sexually assaulted a third woman and had committed a pattern of sex crimes. Weinstein, who wore a dark suit and handcuffs as he was escorted into a Manhattan courtroom on Monday, has been free on a $1 million bail since May.

Although prosecutors argued in court that Weinstein should be placed under house arrest because he faces possible life imprisonment if convicted. However, Judge James Burke rejected that call, reports latimes.com.
