New se-ual assault charges against Harvey Weinstein are likely to be even worse than previously expected, as a New York grand jury has begun to review evidence this week, insiders revealed on Wednesday.

The Manhattan district attorney's office has begun presenting evidence to a grand jury that could return a new indictment against Harvey Weinstein - as soon as Friday.

The indictment is currently sealed, but news outlets reported the charges were related to sex-crime allegations.
