He probably could have slept with at least half of the women if he had just asked them and did not drug them into it.


That is the point. A lot of them happened at the Playboy mansion. No one ever got laid there, right?? His kink was UNCONSCIOUS women. That is what he was into. Unwilling, unconscious women.

According to insiders, the disgraced comic begged for a deal that would include no admission of guilt.

I'm confused. How is there a deal if there's no admission of guilt? Isn't that the essence of a plea bargain?

“I not only want him in prison, I want him in a very harsh environment in prison too. But of course I know he’s not gonna be facing that. It’s country club jail for him if he’s even convicted, which I think odds are probably 50/50.”

But even a “country club” prison will be a stark departure from the way he’s lived his life. I hope the bastard dies in jail!

While that (her staying in touch with Cosby) sounds terrible, we need to remember that this happens often with powerful people. One reason is that the victim may still feel EVEN AFTER THE RAPE that the rapist can still help her or still has power over her. Another is dissociation where the victim has decided she can’t handle what happened and is pretending it didn’t. She can’t come forward because she would be accusing someone who is too powerful and she knows it wouldn’t be believed.

The guy’s a scumbag who got away with rapes because he’s a big shot in Hollywood TV land. Now he’s trying to play blind\cripple to convey that he could never hurt a fly.

The weird thing is that he probably never had to drug women for sex; he's Bill Freaking Cosby! He could have gotten all kinds of women to jump in bed with him for free.

The fact that he would drug them into unconsciousness is the strangest part of all. Maybe he thought that if they didn't know what he was doing, they would be able to tell anyone about it. He probably was afraid of being extorted or splashed in the tabloids. So, he knocks the women out, so they can't really say what happened. That's a pretty demented way to have sex.

Ah geez, not this...

Back when The Cosby Show was on my mother related to me that she had read that one of Bill Cosby's demands when staying at a hotel was to have two white women brought to his room. At the time I dismissed what she told me, cuz hey, Bill Cosby was the man who never swore on any of his albums or at his concerts and he did the Cosby Show as a response to all the crap TV that made Dad's look like fools. Plus, he went back to college and got a Phd in education. How could he actually be so low class to make such a demand?

Cosby is just like OJ. White people came to know and respect both of them just after all the race riots of the late 60s. Hey, most of us did not really know Black people, but Cosby and OJ helped us around that.

It is nothing but a damn shame.

Why is a 2004 assault prosecutable? I thought there was a 7 year limit under the statute of limitations? While I’m on the topic, what is the statute of limitations on civil trials, if there is one?

"How come Cosby’s in the stockade but Clinton’s not???"

Cosby committed the unpardonable crime of calling for members of the Black community to take responsibility for themselves.

All that Hitlery has done is treason, murder, cheat, lie, steal and the list goes on.

OJ and Cosby really did fall VERY far. A lot of fame and fortune can allow the worst in people to be tolerated too long. It is a shame that what were thought to be strong, good black male role models ended up poisonous criminals.

It could be that she filed before the expiration of the statute of limitations. Also, the statue of limitations for any crime varies from state to state.

no doubt, hundreds even. but that didn’t turn the pervert on; what turned him on was bonking women that were passed out.

Cosby didn't pay attention to the TV show he created?

Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids go to prison (from 1984 episode that originally had profanity)

In another era, friends would have taken a guilty man to a small, dark office that contained only a desk, a chair, and a revolver with one round, in the drawer of the desk. They would have closed the door and waited until they heard the shot. I think Cosby’s that guilty.

I know some states upped the limit to 15 years on sex crimes. Not from personal experience.
