Bill Cosby’s legacy, recast: Accusers speak out

[PistolBob]

If Coz was a congressman instead of a right wing celebrity...he'd be off the hook.

 

[jamil]

Right wing? I suppose if everthing to the right of the fringe left is “right-wing”, yeah.

 

[Caleb]

I'm old enough to remember when comedy albums were a thing. And we'd laugh at those things until our sides hurt. We paid good money to see him perform up in Indy twice.

When people you like and thought you "knew" gets accused of these sorts of things, at least I want to believe they are bogus charges. But like you, all of that is tarnished now. He was a funny man and a great story teller. Too bad he had that dark side to bring it all crashing down.

I know the feeling...a guy I had looked up to just recently pleaded guilty to 3 counts of child molestation in exchange of dropping 3 or 4 others. I'm sad for the family, but pissed at him.

Bill Cosby's wife calls for a criminal investigation into the prosecutor behind her husband's sexual assault conviction, saying the case was "mob justice, not real justice" and a "tragedy" that must be undone.

Well, she's probably 25% right.

If he was Bill Clinton instead of Bill Cosby he would not be in court

If he was Bill Clinton instead of Bill Cosby he would not be in court

And his accusers would have met an untimely demise...

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Bill Cosby could be sentenced to life in prison this week after his conviction for sexual assault.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Cosby was sentenced to 3-10 years in state prison.

 

[Dead Duck]

Cosby was sentenced to 3-10 years in state prison.

So basically, Cosby got off....... again.

 

[Alpo]

At his age, that's a potentially significant part of the remainder of his life. Might even be a life sentence, depending on his ability to hold up.

 

[HoughMade]

So basically, Cosby got off....... again.

Not really. This was a dicey case. I don't know what appeals my be present, but this was not really the case the accusers wanted to see tried, but seeing as how it was one of the very few still within the statute of limitations, it's the one that got him.

 

[Dead Duck]

So how much time will Cosby get for drugging and boinking that tall guy?

What is the point? You don’t think she’s pretty enough to rape? How is that relevant?

Repped.

I look forward to hearing about his star being removed on the Hollywood walk of fame. Oh wait, they aren’t even though they removed trumps because of his “actions towards woman”. Also Kevin spacey and Harvey Weinstein’s is still there.

 

[HoughMade]

... even though they removed trumps because of his “actions towards woman”...

Where’d you hear that?

 

[amboy49]

Judge didn’t allow bail. Went directly to jail. Is this “normal ?”

 

[terrehautian]

Where’d you hear that?

I read an article wrong last month, that is where. A government body asked the people in charge of the walk to remove it, they said they won’t.

 

[Trigger Time]

Trumps isn't removed. It's now replaced and back in place
