Re: BILL COSBY TO STAND TRIAL

Saw him on the local news this morning & afternoon going & leaving the court room.  He looked pretty healthy this time around.  No cane & wearing a suit.

 

I hope the trial is on tv (HLN). 

Where is Court TV when we need them?

Re: BILL COSBY TO STAND TRIAL

As I heard it, he had a company send him women...escort service, I imagine.

 

Although I've never found him attractive, how sad that he had to drug them, on top of paying.  I guess he didn't want a "relationship" outside of marriage.  Maybe he and his wife had such an agreement..."It's okay, as long as you pay for it.  NO relationship!"

 

And whether that is the case or not, his wife had to have known about what he was doing.  I don't blame her for anything.  Her only guilt would be if she knew he was drugging the women and then assaulting them.

 

I am sorry for her shame at this coming out.

Always LOVED Court TV!  Glued to the Menendez brothers' trial and OJ Simpson's.  And various others.  Have been in a trial desert for years and years. Smiley Sad

I don't feel sorry for her at all .... and her calling all the victims "liars" was way out of line.  You don't protect criminals ... even if they are your very rich husband!   JMO

Good.  I hope he gets what he deserves.

 

And about Mrs. Cosby.  Who knows what she knew and didn't know?  Besides her.

 

I am glad that the victims of this disgusting man will have their day(s) in court!!

@Tinkrbl44  You're right!    What he was doing was wrong and she was wrong to act as if it wasn't happening.  She remained silent for her own reasons.

 

I hereby retract my sympathy for her! Woman Happy

Don't forget the Ted Kennedy, Jr rape trial.  Remember the victim had the black dot across her face all during the trial? Yet, everybody (TV viewers) knew what she looked like.

She didn't want to have to exit the gravy train?

Re: BILL COSBY TO STAND TRIAL

I got an e-mail from CNN about this.  It's such good news!  I hope they're able to convict him.

 

 @esmerelda  I haven't heard anything about an escort service, although I could have just missed it.  The women I've seen discussing this were business acquaintances of his as well as other types of associations.  Some of them were under age at the time.  The CNN e-mail says he's been accused by more than 50 women now.
