Apparently this: Following the verdict, District Attorney Kevin Steele called for the disgraced funnyman's bail to be revoked, posing that he is a flight risk given his access to a private plane.

ya i know, but the media knows what people want, they want drama, shock, outrage, "oh no, he said a curseword in court, what an outrage" silly. I remember some guys i knew got caught up in a local cop shooting spree, next thing you know when they came to court they were "staring down the officer's wives" it was bullshit, most of it was bullshit but when they wanna get you, they gonna get you. | |

The profanity got Cosby, home confinement. Before, the court had given Cosby permission to move around the county he'd lived in. Dumb. Stunts like that are remembered at sentencing. Dumb.

No, doubt. I feel really sad about this whole thing and have to wonder. Bill Cosby was such a Black American Icon for decades in many genres. I never heard one bad thing about him my entire life. This is really sad. There must have been persuasive evidence but I can't help but feel bad that someone I looked up to as a kid has crashed so low... Someone want a Pudding Pop.

I gotta wonder about this, too. Why wouldn't the accusors try to bring Cosby down at the height of his popularity? And why is Dustin Hoffman, of all people, getting attacked now for what he apologized for decades ago? Although rooting out sexual abuse of women is a legitimate cause, I think that this has turned into a "witch hunt." And I'm female.

i feel bad too, i go back and forth between thinking "he got what he deserved" and "shit, they shouldn't be sending him to jail, they railroaded his old ass" i still think they did some unprecedented shit to get him convicted. but...., he liked to rape women. one thing i found interesting in my readings on the ludes was that some women actually did like them because they lowered inhibitions and made them feel more lustful, that was a major reason some women liked to take them. However, that doesn't cover being in a coma when some creep is screwing you. no defending that one i'm afraid. | |

I haven't read all the articles about the court case, but I'm assuming they had enough evidence to convict him. My question is: where were all of these accusations when he was younger? We can't blame societal bias because plenty of women (and men) came out with accusations of other people years ago. Remember when Eddy Murphy had plenty of accusations? I'm just wondering...

they have no real evidence against cosby, no dna, no sperm, no vaginal abrasions, things that are typically linked to a rape case, it's kind of a witchunt but it's also hard to deny that he'd been doing it forever. Also, I believe they did a lot of wheeling and dealing in 2004 so that they wouldn't try him and i think a part of his deposition was suppossed to be sealed permanently and that he wouldn't have spoken to them had he not had some guarantee and control that the situation would be resolved with the settlement. I think it's dirty, the woman took the 3.1 mill, right when they were about to start a trial, right when other women were about to get on planes to get to court, the trial was stopped. so.., theoretically, he could probably sue for the money back although i doubt the lady has any left..she broke a deal she made, that's wrong, she agreed, wrong or right, not to testify, that's bullshit. also, in thinking of all the honorary doctorates and degrees that are being taken away, they should also give cosby's money back but it doesn't work like that does it? I have more than a few questions about the whole thing. And cosby, like any of us, is more than the worst things he's done. | |

Its always amazing to me the excuses some people make for men who rape/sexual abuse. Most men who rape aren't famous or wealthy yet, some how some way people give celebrities them benefit of doubt. As a nation we've become so obsessed with celebrity and wealth, we seem to think those two characteristics makes one exempt from acts of evil and/or wrong doing. It seems more and more we equate fame and money as some type of barometer of legitimacy. Good grief. Mr. Cosby will appeal his conviction and he and his lawyers have one main issue they could argue that may get his conviction overturn. If you wish to know what it is, I've posted in political forum. Be that as it may...
The jurist in the Cosby trial said yesterday, Mr. Cosby own words let to the verdict of guilty. In Mr. Cosby 2005 deposition he admit to drugging women in order to have sex. Mr. Cosby didn't say his victims took drug voluntarily, Mr. Cosby said he drugged them. The AP attempted to get the deposition released in 2005 but the courts temporarilyy sealed Cosby civil court deposition. When Mr. Cosby legal team railed against AP asking again for Cosby's deposition to be unsealed, the judge ruled...
Mr. Cosby's claims of violation of privacy was a moot point, when he cast himself as a moralist."They public needs to know what Cosby says publicly and how he conducts himself privately are in stark contrast."
All documents filed in court become part of the public record. Although discovery materials (which include deposition transcripts) are generally not considered part of the public record, they become part of the public record when filed in support of a substantive motion in the case. This is what the AP basically argued and the judge agreed.
Lose lips sink ships and Cosby time and time again put his foot in his own mouth. Oh well. | |

i'm not making any excuses, it's just plain unprecedented what's happening, even the previous prosecutor (better judge of this than I am) thought it was wrong to prosecute him after all these years. I was on this story 9 years ago before most people were and i had no doubt he did it. but our judicial system supposedly has rules but those rules are broken whenever they see fit. I still don't get why he talked to the police, i'll quote that chineze proverb again "disease enters into the mouth misfortunes issue from it."
