Re: Miss-Trail in Cosby Case

I imagine the jurors had a hard time with this because he didn't force her to take the pills. He gave them to her supposedly saying they were allergy pills but she took them he didn't force them down her throat or put them in a drink or food. She also had numerous long phone calls with him after the incident took place. I have no doubt he is guilty and there have been around fifty women that have came forward with claims of this kind involving Bill Cosby. Part of the problem is they waited so long to come forward.

@Tinkrbl44  It is ashamed to think the jury make up mattered or would matter but that is the way it is.  That is why I am wondering how they are going to pick the next jury.  Not too many people around who have not heard about it or have not formed an opinion. 


Supposedly, you are tried by a jury of your peers. Not sure how they determine that.

I really have to say.......

 

If I or any other woman were to go to a stars room  alone at  any time ,I would be concious of  "being alone"  and would expect advances!

 

We all know there are dozens of gals  waiting at the doors of super stars every day! Ready to give all! ..and maybe get a super job because of it........

 

Unless your are stupid,dumb or whatever ,you must certainly be aware of the "aloneness" of the situation!

 

You are looking for trouble if you engage in this behavior over and over and so I do  NOT  consider the man guilty but I do consider your action,thinking you just may be getting  a "favored" spot in the life of the "power" man you have just visited!!!!!!

I already replied on the other thread, but I am still wondering about Bill's wife Camille. I think she only showed up one day of the trial. I am curious if this is mainly a marriage of convenience or if she actually supports his "innocence." Doesn't he have at least one child out of his infidelity to her? I guess the money and the lifestyle are worth it to her?


@RainCityWoman  After the trial one of Bill Cosby's spokesperson's read a letter written by Camille.  She was very negative about the judge being on the side of the prosecution and the media among other things.  She apparently is very much standing with her husband.


Interesting, since it was THAT judge who would only allow one other witness to testify.

@MalteseMomma

 

 

Did you NOT read the previous thread comment about consent?     If a woman is a consenting adult, that's one thing, but this is not what happened.   

 

When a woman is unknowingly given knock out drugs in a beverage, or is given them and told they are harmless "benadryl" they are NOT consenting to what comes next.

 

Plus, BC came on as a kind Dr Huxtable type mentor .... not someone ready to pounce.  

 

Why are you so quick to totally dismiss his criminal activity and blame the victims?

These women did not give their consent to have sex with him.    That's a crime

Because I am not living under a rock,  in "Never Land"!!!

 

 

IMO, she consented the moment she knocked on his door and enetered his room!

Does anyone know how many males and  females were on this jury?   Ethnicity mix of the jurors?


 

 

 

@Tinkrbl44

 

 

 

Here's the breakdown of the jury.

 

6 white males

 

4 white females

 

1 black male

 

1 black female


@Plaid Pants2

 

Thanks for the breakdown .....  and I'm guessing a big part of the problem in deliberations was that there were 7 males and 5 females!

 

I think men are more likely to cut another man more slack in these types of cases.   If the juror breakdown had been, for example,  10 women and 2 men,  there would have been a lot more sympathy for the victim.
