LOS ANGELES—Former film producer Harvey Weinstein was convicted on Dec. 19 of sexually assaulting a woman in the Los Angeles area in 2013, but jurors acquitted him of charges relating to a second alleged victim and were unable to reach verdicts on charges relating to two other women.

Weinstein, 70, was convicted of three of the seven counts he was facing—forcible rape, forcible oral copulation, and sexual penetration by a foreign object. All three of those counts related to a victim referred to only as Jane Doe #1, with the crimes occurring on or about Feb. 18, 2013.
