What kind of woman reads the dozens of stories of Cosby using his power to slip women drugs in their drink or fake that it’s a pill for some other reason, and sexually assault them, and doesn’t believe them, either individually due to the details therein, or as a massive group? I have been in those women’s position, yes, not with Bill Cosby.

I know it's difficult. I have been in a position a few times in my life where I thought justice would never be done to someone who deserved it. But our justice system is still and hopefully always based on "innocent until proven guilty." I will say it again: I am NOT saying Cosby didn't do injury to anyone. I am saying we have a justice system for a reason, and one of it's precepts is you are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. A court of law. Not TMZ, not The View. Trial by media has always been a real and present danger in our legal system, hence the many motions for a change of venue away from where sensational publicity has prejudiced the case. Trial by media only serves to get ratings for the media. It does not enhance the pursuit of justice. Ever.
