And, as long a blacks obviously esteem their “experience” above justice, it’s a waste of time. Cosby’s their hero. They care not that he’s a degenerate piece of filth, and if his attorney can get a certain kind of black on the jury, Cosby has nothing to worry about.

"The other is the DA does investigations on its own when in RL the cops do all the investigation work and the DA just prosecutes, period."

Granted, Law & Order presents a false picture of the actual DA's doing the legwork on investigations. However, across the country, many DAs offices have their own investigators that will do follow up on cases received from law enforcement agencies, coordinate inter-agency task forces or handle specialty cases (i.e. insurance/medical fraud) which a smaller municipal PD within the DA's jurisdiction may not be particularly prepared to handle.

On a Cosby trial thread three days ago (June 14), I alone predicted a hung jury due to the fact that the jury was out so long. I will now consult my crystal ball on what is going to happen next, LOL.

Speaking of fake news, Bill was a big supporter of the Tawana Brawley/Al Sharpton fake news gang, way back when.

Can he be retried?Yes. He can be retried with then jury can not come to a verdict/hung. If they had found him innocent, he can not be retried on the same crime. Of course, at 79, he may not live through the next trial.

Family values from a man who was having sex outside his marriage with hundreds of women.

At the trial the defense also showed phone logs of 53 phone calls from the accuser to Cosby after the event in question, one of which was 49 minutes long. The defense pointed out that this is the behavior of a lover not someone who was assaulted.

He was doing this stuff long before Ennis was murdered.

All the while he was drugging and raping unconscious women, while his wife looked the other way.

Thank you.

Think of the millions of $ because someone copped a feel, 10 years ago , and the accused & accuser stayed involved for another year afterwards.

Stinks of people making careers for themselves on high profile cases at taxpayer expense.

And we’ll never know if they were closer to convict or not convict.

Do we know this for a fact? Cosby was never prosecuted for any of those supposed rapes, they were never even reported for over 10 years. Could there be some reason for that? He may have been sexually active outside his marriage, done drugs with women, nothing to be proud of but the story of him as a serial predator leaves me unconvinced.

How many women came out of the woodwork to accuse our President? Their stories were all false but if he hadn’t been such a careful man, with good record keeping, Gloria Allred types could have seriously damaged him.

From what I heard that went on at the trial I doubted they would convict.

I always got the impression that charging Cosby with a crime was more important than being able to actually prove in a court of law that he committed one. At any rate, "Cosby the rapist" will be his legacy.

He absolutely did change after the death of his son.

We had seen him perform before and after and he was a very bitter, angry, hurting man after his son’s death. I was never tempted to see him again after his son’s death but I prayed for him. I hope he did find peace.

A powerful man can marshal his resources to cover up his crimes, especially one who is politically connected (to a party renowned for protecting rapists and other sex degenerates and criminals). He would routinely threaten his victims that he would “destroy them” if they tried to seek justice. This isn’t an example of a “paragon” having sluts and nuts pop out of the woodwork to destroy him just as he’s running for office (the usual Deep State Dem/RINO playbook against a Conservative Republican).

Honestly, I know few details of the whole Cosby mess. A lot of women came forward claiming he drugged and raped them. That is about all I know.

I’m with you, Az Joe. Looking for money. WAY beyond overdue. You’re assaulted, press charges.
