Cosby is scum. BUT there was prosecutorial misconduct here. He was granted immunity in exchange for testifying in a civil case. Then they used his testimony in that case, stripped the immunity and prosecuted him criminally.

From a civil liberties perspective, tricking someone into waiving their 5th amendments rights is not right.

When will the Pennsylvania Supremes finally get around to tackling the irregularities in the 2020 election including different ballot rejection standards for different parts of the state?

this is news to me, but if those are the facts, then totally agreed

i do not trust prosecutors anymore....not sure i ever did. they are just trying to make a political name for themselves, and perhaps they can make it to Congress to get REALLY rich

Not convicted anymore.

They cannot retry him on the same count.

Cosby was only found guilty because he had confessed in a sealed deposition in exchange for immunity from prosecution. A second prosecutor got that confession unsealed. Regardless of Cosby’s conduct, this is prosecutorial misconduct. Proves government cannot be trusted. The second prosecutor should be disbarred, fired, sentenced to life at hard labor, and executed.

The thing with a lot of folks on FR is that they are like a lot of folks on the extreme left:

They want to agree that we are a nation of laws and the application of blind justice...except when it allows Trump to win, or when it means someone like Cosby goes free.

If you agree that we need to play by a set of rules, then this is an example where I applaud the ruling—but think a guilty man is allowed to walk free. And that is OK by me.

MOST of the craft workers are regular, decent people who just want to work and produce a quality product. They are not the people you see on TV or on the internet. But they are the people who make “Hollywood” happen.

The world is big, wide, and wonderful. You should learn not to paint with such a broad brush.

Double jeopardy doesn’t apply when a conviction is reversed on appeal.
