In many ways it’s even harder for a rich, powerful, privileged person to leave it all behind than it is for a normal person. Just losing control of his company was a crippling blow to his self-identity. Even if we assume he’s healthier than he looks, it wouldn’t be easy for a 67-year-old conditioned to a life of luxury to leave behind the houses and riches for a life on the lam.
Also, unlike high-profile international fugitives such as Roman Polanski and Carlos Ghosn it doesn’t look like Weinstein had any established foreign citizenships/residency status he could exploit to start a new life abroad.
