The Never-Ending Cosby Show

Some of the jurors in the Cosby trial speak out. It sounds like they did their duty by-the-book, just the way a jury is supposed to function. It also sounds like Cosby's own words in his deposition was the single biggest factor that did him in.

The other day, a friend said that it will all be for naught if Cosby doesn't spend at least some time behind bars. I kinda disagree. I think he should be locked up but if he isn't, it won't be like he "got away" with his crimes. His career and reputation are in ruins. He's spent a fortune on legal fees and that's not over yet. He has probably had a very miserable, depressing couple of years watching as most of America has gone from loving him to hating him. That's not the complete punishment he deserves of course but it's also not nothing and it's already a pretty solid deterrent to some other powerful men who might have thought they could prey on those of lesser power and not get spanked hard for it.

I'll have a longish post about Cosby up here in the next day or so.
