Bill Cosby

[I.P.Freely]

I saw a woman today describing the attack that she suffered at the hands of Cosby - she was very believable and cried real tears relating the story. Incredibly damning, to me.

I'm at the point in my life when I can spot a faker - she was not "faking."

Not disagreeing with you, but the thought occurs that most of these women, if not all, are failed actresses: at least they did not make it in the big time, but they are still actresses. Thus, very believable in their dramatics.

I still think there is a possibility all of them are hoping for noteriety, fame, fortune, acting jobs....a payout. I still can't believe that that many women were attacked and not one thought it wise to go to the police. I still kind of think this could be a monkey see, monkey do thing--like it looks like a good way to get noticed, maybe get some cash, etc.

Yeah, I'm sure the offers are rolling in.


This year's summer blockbuster, starring Bill Cosby rape victim such and such.


It's a can't miss.

We've already had someone describing seeing one of them doing a television interview. You don't think she is getting paid for that interview? At the very least she is probably getting a paid holiday in LA or NY.

I bet she was asking for it at the time, short skirt and a low cut top probably. How can any man take no to mean no when the sluts are dressed like that. You just drug them and the question never arises.

Jimmy Savile raised huge amount of money for charity.When confronted by an administrator in a Leeds hospital about an allegation of sexual abuse, he responded that he had raised £2.5 million for the hospital and would they like him to carry on.

And OJ didn't kill his wife....

There was all kinds of evidence in that case; there is zero evidence in this case.

You do not know that - you can't.

Testimony is actually considered evidence, by the way.

Not unverifiable testimony. It is weak evidence unless there is verifiable evidence to back it up.

You could not be a stupider *****, truly. What the **** do you base your legal opinion on, lady? The shows you watch on TV????

I'm a prosecutor and former/future defense attorney; I actually know the criminal law from inside the the courtroom and out, and I've been studying criminal law for years, both historical and what happens in criminal courts all over the country today.

Rape trials are almost always HE SAID, SHE SAID. There is not DNA evidence in every case - or even in many cases.

CSI is a TV show; in the real world, getting DNA tests results from the state crime lab takes MONTHS, not the minutes/days it does on CSI.

Sorry to burst your bubble and prove to you that TV IS NOT REAL.

Ok, a criminal law attorney

Please explain why our criminal justice system has within it a Statute of limitations.

Thanks in advance.

your question is easily answered by citing the fact that the finest criminal legal system in the world, Great Britain has no statute of limitation for rape.

You are 100% wrong. Do you realize how many people are convicted in this country ... especially rape casses ... on nothing more than the victims testimony?

There are no statutes on any felonies in Maryland. Cosby could be tried and convicted under state law.

First, we do not know that they are victims. Second, if they went to the police, why did nothing happen? Cosby was never that important or powerful that if he committed a crime that could be prosecuted, he would be exempt from the law. He was never the most powerful man in the world. He never had that kind of influence that if he committed crimes that were reported to the police, where there was credible evidence, that the police would over look it. Such an assertion is ludicrous.

NO, YOU are ludicrous in that you don't understand how many rapes of all kinds by all kinds of rapists don't get reported or when reported, don't get tried.

THAT is no basis whatsoever as to the credibility of the victims, it's just proof of how little the system cares about rape victims and I'm telling you that from inside the system, someone who actually knows the stats, etc.

I'm sorry, but you are just a stupid ****.

Another one blaming the system for not up holding the law, why am I not surprised ? If a person wants justice, and they can prove their case, then the law will assist them in anyway possible. The main thing is to report it, and not be afraid to do so. And if one is afraid, then they can take measures to secure any evidence that will be needed at a later date, once the fear has passed. No evidence, then as everyone knows there is no case. If the law could convict without evidence, and do it on hearsay, then we would be back to cave man days, and that ain't happening.

You are confusing actual testimony with hearsay. Hearsay is relating a third party story that you, yourself, were not actually privy too. When you stand before the court and relate an event that you actually wittinessed, than you are considered a witness and yes, it is considered testimony.

Shit-house lawyers abound in this thread.

One is quoted as saying when she woke her pajamas were off.

She was wearing pajamas?

That's a deflection, not an answer.

Are you a criminal law attorney?

And how many men are later set free because the evidence did not support the conviction

Actually, there is a witness that stood by the door and protected the Coz while he was molesting women. More to come...perhaps.

Provide the physical evidence to support the accusation. A defendant deserves as much

I presume you do not support the death penalty?

Convictions for murder can be gained without a victims body.

Uppity ****** after all

I rather think, judging by the bigots on this board your wonderful Potus is a mile ahead.But hey that's America, the greatest country in the world at present unless you are a racist.
Ps as a white British Liberal I find your use of the race card to be the recourse of a nincompoop .

And I find you to be a pompous scumbag from a second rate country, but that's only an opinion like yours, this however is the undisputable truth!

a simple yes or no
