He has a show tonight in Atlanta and a friend go mine works for venue. There are protests planned and I'm curious to see how many people show up to see him.

When did Bill Cosby find the time to have a career between sexually assaulting women? Who was getting him the drugs? They had to know what he was doing, why did they go along with it? Because he was really successful and too many people had invested in him to let this get out. Plus, who cared about a bunch of starlets? They were disposable compared to the Great Bill Cosby. /gags

I hope this predator ends up in jail. Interesting that New Jersey has no statute of limitations. I wasn't aware of that. I hope they go after him.

Unfortunately, I don't think it would do anything to him. It'll come down to he said/she said in court. I think the court of public opinion is a lot more damaging than an actual criminal court in his case.

Here's hoping he faces some real jail time. If it can happen to Sandusky, it could happen to Cosby. And should. Fuck him.

Yes, though that probably also has to do with the fact that it's harder to prove defamation/libel in the States (as opposed to, for example, England) and the fact that he would be drawing even MORE attention to his being a serial rapist. Which he is.
Bill Cosby is a serial rapist. Think about that. It's just even weird to type it out. But it's true.

Has he been charged with anything? In any state?

I can't post this enough: the fact that this creepy predator still hasn't been arrested and/or publicly vilified in a meaningful way fills me with rage. The damage he has done to his victims (and could still do to many others) is incalculable. He should be doing time. He is an abomination.

I don't think he's going to do time any more than Roman Polanski will. What gets me about Cosby is this. He was doing all this shit from the 60's I believe; a time when black men didn't have it that good. Which makes me then wonder, if Cosby felt safe to rape and abuse women, then what were the white stars from that time doing?
