Comedian Bill Cosby sentenced 3-10 years for sexual assault

[Commander Wallace]

Comedian Bill Cosby was handed a somewhat lengthy prison sentence earlier this week in the sentencing phase. His victims believe it wasn't nearly enough considering his crimes. Bill Cosby's bond was immediately revoked and he left the courthouse in handcuffs.


Quote: Cosby was booked into Montgomery County Correctional Facility and will be transferred to SCI Phoenix, a state prison in Collegeville, according to Corrie Emerson, public affairs manager for Montgomery County.


The lengthy path to this moment began in 2004 when Cosby, the groundbreaking actor, gave Constand pills to incapacitate her and then sexually assaulted her. She told police in 2005 about the incident but prosecutors declined to press charges, and they settled the case in civil court a year later.


A decade later, dozens of women came forward to say Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted them over his decades as a powerful media figure. Constand's was the only one of those cases that occurred within the statute of limitations. A new team of prosecutors took up the case and, relying on Constand's and Cosby's statements in a civil deposition, arrested him in December 2015.


He also was ordered to pay a fine of $25,000 plus the costs of prosecution as part of the sentence. In addition, O'Neill ruled that Cosby will be classified as a "sexually violent predator," a determination that requires lifetime registration, lifetime mandatory sex offender counseling with a treatment provider and notification to the community that a "sexually violent predator" lives in the area.

Cosby has gone from the trademark sweaters he wore on the Cosby show as Dr. Heathcliff "Cliff" Huxtable to a prison jumpsuit.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

A sad even if a predictable end to his behaviour.

As the old saying goes, he buttered his bridge, now he has to sleep in it.

I don't do old sayings very well.

I wouldn't be so certain on that one.
