By contrast, throughout the depositions, Cosby maintained the pills he gave to Constand were Benadryl. The obvious question here is whether these women consented or not. In his deposition, he testified to provisioning quaaludes to women (not including Constand) he intended to have sexual intercourse with. The prosecution of Cosby was one of the first major milestones in the #metoo era.Įssentially, the PA Supreme Court ruled a deal made in a civil case with a previous Montgomery County District Attorney exchanged incriminating testimony from Cosby for immunity against prosecution in a criminal trial. Cosby served nearly three years of the sentence before this decision was handed down. Bill Cosby was sentenced to three to ten years in prison. In September of 2018, Cosby was convicted of three felony counts of the 2004 aggravated indecent assault of Temple University employee Andrea Constand. As a consequence, Pennsylvania’s highest court ordered his release from the state prison where he was carrying out his sentence. Fast forward to last week, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court overturned Bill Cosby’s high-profile conviction of indecent assault after determining he was denied protection against self-incrimination.
So much has happened since the last episode of The Cosby Show aired in April of 1992.
