As another black comedian said “Grand Opening, Grand Closing”, Bill Cosby has the request for a new trial denied as reported by usatoday.com.
Bill Cosby’s Trial Judge, Judge Steven T. O’Neill, rejected the embattled entertainer’s request for a new trial on Tuesday (October 23). O’Neill added that Cosby’s team could redirect it to the Superior Court of Pennsylvania.
Joseph P. Green, Cosby’s former attorney, asked for a new trial after he claimed that the prosecution didn’t prove that the assault happened within the 12-year statute of limitations. He also claimed that the tape recording that was used as evidence had been tampered with.
Cosby’s wife Camille released a statement following the news, calling O’Neill “corrupt.”
Cosby who was sentenced to 3 to 10 years in prison for sexual assault isn’t seeing this type of prison time as a laughing matter at the age of 81, along with the fact that he has already been assaulted via a stale hog dog bun to the dome. Cosby did the disgusting crimes and now he needs to pull up his pants and hold the “L”. Blessing and peace to all the women and families affected by people like him who commit sexual assault.
