Bill Cosby Found Guilty of Sexual Assault
Today, Bill Cosby was found guilty of sexual assault in Norristown, Pennsylvania. Cosby, who is 80 years old was found guilty on three counts of aggravated indecent assault for drugging and violating a Temple University employee, named Andrea Constand at his Philadelphia home in 2004. After a two week retrial in which prosecutors brought up five other women who testified against Cosby reporting that they had been drugged and violated, the jury finally found him guilty. Cosby can now face up to 30 years in jail.

Doesn't he face 10 counts x 3? I thought that was the outcome. Either way, I doubt that he ever expected he'd go to prison. We'll see how the appeal goes. Do you have any feelings about the case? For me, Cosby was a mainstay figure in popular culture, so it's kind of a big deal. In the wake of #MeToo, it's likely that more cases such as this will emerge. Agree?
