Has something to do with his Civil Court proceedings and a Judge.  I'm trying to contextualize the ruling for myself too.

The judge said he had an unfair trial.  Absolutely disgusting, especially when the narcissistic SOB admitted his guilt.

"The state Supreme Court on Wednesday found that an agreement with a previous prosecutor prevented him from being charged for allegedly drugging and molesting Andrea Constand in 2004."

One of the few times in my life that I'm speechless 😶.

The court said that District Attorney Kevin Steele, who made the decision to arrest Cosby, was obligated to stand by his predecessor’s promise not to charge Cosby when he later gave potentially incriminating testimony in Constand’s civil suit. There was no evidence that promise was ever put in writing.

Justice David Wecht, writing for a split court, said Cosby had relied on the former prosecutor’s decision not to charge him when he later gave potentially incriminating testimony in the Constand’s civil suit.

Sounds like he made a plea deal which was not honored.  Jeopardy has attached so he will walk free and he can not be tried again for these crimes.

So he slithers away over a violation of his 5th Amendment rights.
