Well, I don't know what to make of this. Honestly, if he's guilty he deserves his punishment. But do we really want to incarcerate 80 year old blind men? It's going to cost a small fortune to take care of him in jail for 3 years. I understand the Judge's rationale and agree, but it still seems like a waste of procedure to me.

Yep. Should have been time served, if any. This is dumb.

At least it proves that there is justice in this country for all but the victims of Democratic politicians.

He’s not really blind.

I remember when that would have been a capital crime. Cosby deserves the most severe punishment.

Back in the late 60s I had one of his albums. He was a great story teller. Some of his athletic stories were both funny and you knew he had actually been there and done that.

I am surprised that he did not kill any of those women with his drug and alcohol cocktails.

I’m happy to say that I NEVER considered Cosby ‘America’s Dad’. Unlike Cosby, my dad had morality.

Thank goodness you were neither a judge nor a juror.

Yes, we want him behind bars where he belongs. I couldn’t care less how old or blind he is.

Just rot BC.

Violent sexual predator, likely to repeat!

Cosby was a predator but now, at 81 and legally blind, sending him to prison for at least three years seems a bit excessive. If the goal is have Cosby die in prison, it will likely be met.

I’m sure Cosby will be sent to a low-security prison and not be placed with the general population. His wealth will allow him some amenities and medical care but his name and reputation have been totally destroyed by his sex crimes.

Dying in prison is his ultimate humiliation/punishment and about the worst the justice system can do him.

Blind my ass! The news had a picture of him walking into the courthouse the other day and he was pointing to someone in the crowd.

What about all those women he raped while they were passed out on his happy biscuit pills? He said in a deposition years ago he did this to women.

Don’t care if he is blind, those women he raped were blind too in a sense. Also his wife knew he was doing this and did nothing to stop him as long as she had all those billions of dollars. Plus how did he get blind so quick?

"But do we really want to incarcerate 80 year old blind men?"

I tend to agree. I was hoping they'd put this physical and mental cripple under permanent house arrest with a fool-proof ankle bracelet, allowing him out only for medical trips.

This way he'd be forced to spend the hundreds of thou$and$ of his OWN money for his future food and medicine needs, for his other health problems, for his home upkeep and taxes, for his personal maintenance, etc. instead of the innocent taxpayers having to foot his bills till he meets his maker (Old Nick himself)).

This would also obviate and free-up much-needed jail space which could be available for successions of illegal alien criminals.

THAT would make more sense in this particular case.

House arrest for life. Make him pay his own way. He will be miserable.

This guy damaged countless women for decades. He had no remorse whatsoever. Three years is not harsh. If he dies in prison well he led a great life of privilege, wealth, fame and endless date rape drugged women.
