A court livestream captured the moment when the convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein learned that he will be extradited from a New York prison to Los Angeles to stand another trial on multiple sexual-assault charges.

The 69-year-old disgraced former film mogul buried his head in his hands soon after an Erie County judge made the ruling Tuesday, as seen on a court livestream.

Weinstein is serving a 23-year sentence at the upstate New York Wende Correctional Facility on convictions of third-degree rape and first-degree criminal sexual act.

Erie County Judge Kenneth Case ordered that Weinstein be extradited to Los Angeles in July. Weinstein has been indicted on 11 counts of sexual assault involving five women in Los Angeles County.
