Bill Cosby is speaking out from prison.
Over a year after he was first incarcerated for the sexual assault of Andrea Constand, the disgraced actor and comedian — who is serving three to 10 years — has given his first interview. In it, the 82-year-old maintained his innocence from his Pennsylvania correctional institution, Phoenix, which is located outside Philadelphia, and, because of that, he expects to serve the entire sentence. Cosby also called his trial a “set up” and the jurors “imposters.”
“I have eight years and nine months left,” Cosby told National Newspaper Publishers Association's BlackPressUSA.com, clearly not believing he will leave prison on the early side of his sentence. “When I come up for parole, they’re not going to hear me say that I have remorse. I was there. I don’t care what group of people come along and talk about this when they weren’t there. They don’t know.”
Cosby, who is appealing his sentence, said his trial was “all a set up. That whole jury thing. They were imposters.”
Cosby referred to an incident after the jury was selected when an alternate juror claimed to have overheard a seated juror say that Cosby was guilty. While the issue was raised by Cosby’s legal team with the judge, that judge apparently found insufficient evidence of it because the juror remained.
“It’s something attorneys will tell you is called a payoff,” Cosby said.

believe you 100%. Well said.
He had better shut up and go for the minimum. Parole boards want to hear remorse.
Yeah those racists!
Wasn’t he the one who said “bitch set me up”?
No wait...
I believe he did drugs with and had sex with women. Beyond that I seriously have my doubts. They went after him for speaking the truth.
what an arrogant prick.
Cosby and Francesca in Dante’s Inferno would get along well (blame everything and everyone else instead of themselves for their evil deeds).
Sad. There can be no salvation without repentance - prison is a strange place to “kick against the goads”.
So, the first charges would never have come up if “they” hadn’t been looking for dirt on him.
the issue is not how the charges arose, it’s how guilty he was.
Which has NOTHING to do with the point I was making.
Do you need to drug girls at the Playboy mansion?
Pete Rose is just as defiant. You see Pete Rose is black on the inside having grown up in Cincy, just across the river from Dixie.
Most likely they drug themselves.
