NEW YORK, NY – A judge Wednesday hiked Harvey Weinstein’s bail over allegations he mishandled or disabled his electronic ankle monitor dozens of times in recent months. Weinstein, who had been free on $1 million bail, agreed to meet the obligation by putting up $2 million in cash and other assets through a bail bondsman. Burke offered Weinstein three bail options because of reforms to New York’s bail system that are set to take effect on Jan. 1. Weinstein bail bondsman Ira Judelson's clients have included mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor and former International Monetary Fund honcho Dominique Strauss-Kahn. One of Judelson's associates outside the courthouse wore a sweatshirt with the slogan, “Got Bail?”Prosecutor Joan Illuzzi first raised Weinstein’s alleged bail violations at a hearing last Friday.
