That is not remotely the point nor even verifiable. He is a serial rapist. An unrepentant serial rapist. His victims deserve to know their rapist is held accountable under the law.

Bill Cosby, 81, is sentenced to three to 10 years in state prison for 2004 sex crimes
- Status
All of the above plus in this digital age, sexual misconduct can be via email, or internet posting etc; I believe that Cosby is prohibited from having a twitter, Facebook account etc; if that's not the case, it should be.......
People in their 80's and 90's can still sexually harass, anyone believing otherwise is extremely naive.
And in my opinion he has been.
Not even close for the crimes he committed. Drugging and raping women? Dude deserves decades to rot away.
The big problem with this discussion started -- as internet discussions so often do -- when Nazis were brought into it with the mention of World War II criminals and Auschwitz. Personally sending hundreds, thousands or millions to their death vs. what Cosby did? On scale alone, there is no comparison, and those convicted of direct involvement in the former have received no mercy whatsoever. There is at least room for discussion on Cosby, although I agree with you that, especially with his victims and their loved ones still alive, he ought to remain in prison until death.
I certainly wasn’t comparing them. because bad thing number one happened does not mean bad thing number two need be viewed on some comparability scale.
As for Cosby, so long as no one is drugging and assaulting him, he’s being treated better than his victims were.

No, it was Mikey Radio who brought up Auschwitz, and I hope he wasn't equating the crimes either. Anyway, your fundamental points and his are both solid, and I agree fully.
I wasn't, the comment wasn't made in that context and I sincerely apologize if anyone was offended or disturbed. That certainly wasn't the intent and hopefully one realizes that by the way my comment was worded. Enjoying this discussion thread and the points being brought up and made by all...

The words that come to mind would get me banned forever. This is a repugnant, repulsive decision that victimizes those he raped all over again.
Bill Cosby released after assault conviction overturned by Pennsylvania Supreme Court
A previous prosecutor had decided not to charge the comic and actor, and he relied on that move to speak freely and give incriminating statements.

More unfortunate than repulsive.
Prosecutorial error forced the court's hand. Really nothing the justices could do but throw out the conviction, regardless of the very apparent merits of the case against him and the results of the trial. Under the law, that trial was void as soon as whatever things Cosby had said previously about the charges that weren't prosecuted were used against him in court:
The court said that a prosecutor's decision not to charge Cosby, 83, opened the door for him to speak freely in a lawsuit against him — and that testimony was key in his conviction years later by another prosecutor.
I’m aware of the original prosecutor’s history from relatives in that area, and he should be ashamed of his conduct from day one. He is a soulless, vile opportunist.
Well, well, well ... look whom that prosecutor had recent ties to ....
Bill Cosby was set free because of a deal he'd made with a district attorney who later represented Trump in his 2nd impeachment trial
Cosby is set to walk free because of a deal he'd made with Bruce Castor, whose performance in Trump's second impeachment trial was widely mocked.

Oh yes. That was the least shocking outcome of January 6. The word opportunist comes to mind. Among others, but that may be the kindest.
I'm surprised the CW affiliate in Charlotte got this interview.

Actor, Comedian Bill Cosby served over two years in prison on sex assault charges. Wednesday, a Pennsylvania Supreme Court overturned his 2018 conviction.

I’m simply repulsed that anyone gives an admitted rapist and his enablers attention and validity. And that “spokesperson” is among the most vile of the entire sleazy crew.
The sparking point for investigation. Hope for the best from Hannibal Buress because he will face retaliation along with the Cosby Victims for telling the truth in his rant.
Lets just say our justice system does like to not only "Blame the victim" but in some cases like to "Blame the Hero" too when it comes to rape cases. In some cases if the hero blows the whistle or use deadly force on somebody like Cosby or any other rapist that hero will end up in a paranoid situation in court because these people only knew of a rapist retaliating on the victims but not the ones that are supposed to be the good Samaritans. In those cases they had no idea of retaliation on the hero.
