I would not be shocked if he gets the conviction tossed out, based on the two supposed issues - (1) old prior acts mentioned in case (2) supposed agreement with earlier prosecutor he would not be charged which led him to testify in the civil case

Apparently his check to Biden 2020 cleared.
To: PghBaldy
Yep. The case needs to be tossed !
There is more, but having someone testify over events from thirty years prior for which no police complaint was ever filed was clearly gross malpractice !
The appellate court decision was a disgrace !

I believe they are going to let the Father of The Year out of prison. It's the semi-woke thing to do.

If they sent Bill to jail, there’s a hell of a lot more celebrities that should be right there with him.

If Billy boy had been more down with The Struggle he’d never gone to jail. Instead, he generally told his peeps to get over the victim mentality and quit complaining.
He had to be made an example of dont leave the plantation or face the incarceration.

I was just going to post that. Not saying that he’s innocent or anything, but all of that would have been swept under the rug had he simply been another liberal comedian bashing Trump/Republicans.
To: Gasshog
exactly what happened. He ventured off the plantation.

Cosby is no Conservative and has never said anything good about Republicans AFAIK.

Prison is a bit much here. They could have confined him to house arrest and fines. Waste of taxpayer dollars.

i don’t know if that is true.
I do think he’s where he belongs though.
I read (somewhere!) that the lovely mrs. has not visited him since he’s been in the pokey.
He really screwed her over by getting caught.

There's a reason why there are statute of limitations on most crimes.Finding witnesses,the memories of witnesses fading over time,the death of witnesses.

I agree.
Evidently, in the old days, rich and famous men were allowed to use women at their will. I, myself, no amazing beauty had the VP of my union put his hand up my dress, not to mention my father-in-law.
Of course it’s not right but women were told to keep quiet about it.
I bet there are plenty of famous male stars of the Cosby era that participated in the same sorts of activities and it was accepted.
But Bill Cosby never played the victim game, told young black men to pull up their pants....etc.
They had to get him.
Can’t have a black man encouraging decent behavior in other black men.
