Comedian Bill Cosby was released from prison on Wednesday where he was serving a three- to 10-year sentence. Cosby had already served nearly three years. He won his case at the Pennsylvania supreme court.
Question. Does it mean he was not guilty as charged and was falsely accused and sentenced?
Well, the Supreme court’s ruling was based on procedure. It did not say Bill Cosby was guilty or not guilty. Rather, the supreme court said it found the prosecutor on the case had violated an agreement made with a different prosecutor that prevented Cosby from being charged. Hence, it threw away Cosby’s conviction.
Back in 2019, Cosby reportedly said he has “no remorse” and feels he is like a “political prisoner.”
“I was declared Not Guilty in 2005 by the Commonwealth—never charged,” said Cosby in a statement. “However, a low-life District Attorney and a corrupt Judge needed me Guilty now. Not for justice, but for their political aspirations.”
“I have never changed my stance nor my story. I have always maintained my innocence,” Cosby later tweeted after he was released.
