Anyone else deeply offended by Bill Cosby's actions and his subsequent blasé attitude. He has shown no remorse. I just read today another of my former heroes Bobby Knight was investigated by the FBI for groping two women. In my opinion, these celebrities get preferential treatment by the law. I used to watch the Cosby Show in re runs but refuse to watch this harasser. Just disgusted.

TV One and Bounce TV have recently started showing Cosby Show again, it is on all the time now.

I wont watch him again, either.

 

I am glad to see universities stripping him of his degrees. 

 

When under oath he admitted drugging his first "conquest" I realized that he was a disgusting human being.

I can't believe they declared a mistrial. The man is a predator. He raped over 20 women.

@Reever  He wasn't being tried for anything but the one case.   

And his raping other women hasn't been proven in a court of law, nor has he been convicted for it.  

 

See my thread about the mistrial for more comments about him that you were seeking in your first post.

@Reever  I'm not sure if he is blase so much about the whole thing but I also haven't been following his face all the time nor have I heard him speaking out.

 

Since he is only on trial for one instance, the rest of the accusations will never be tried.

 

This newest accuser kept seeing him after the alleged incident so I doubt there will be a conviction.

@Pearlee  What troubles me about the case is the legal it is setting for decades old cases under a deposition seal being opened by a prosecutor.  The former prosecutor refused to try this case, this one gets it opened.  To me it sets the precedenttone for no longer being truthful when a depo is declared sealed.  There is no constitutional protection then against self incrimination.
