BILL Cosby, a once-adored icon who was fondly dubbed “America’s dad”, has been found guilty of three counts of sexual assault in a landmark trial.

It took two mammoth trials but the disgraced comedian, 80, was brought to justice this morning over an incident in January 2004, in which he drugged and molested Andrea Constand at his home in a Philadelphia suburb.

Cosby showed no emotion and looked down at the table in front of him as his verdict was read out — which prompted some of his victims to burst into tears.

But his calm exterior quickly wore off, when prosecutors asked the judge to revoke Cosby’s bail because he was a “flight risk and has a private plane.”

Cosby stood up and in a loud voice, bellowed, “He doesn’t have a plane, you a**hole.”

The explosive outburst prompted Judge Steven O’Neill to yell, “That’s enough!”

to stay in Montgomery County pending his sentencing, which was not scheduled.

He faces up to 10 years in prison on each count but is likely to serve them concurrently.

“Because of his age, his medical issues, I am not going to simply lock him up because of this,” said Mr O’Neill.

He faces fines of up to $US25,000 ($33,000 AUD) on each count.

The reckoning comes following the disgraced comic’s second trial, and just over 14 hours of deliberations by a panel of five women and seven men.

‘HE KNOCKED ME OUT WITH BLUE PILLS’

Cosby’s chief accuser, Andrea Constand, bravely took the stand to publicly relay for a second time her recollection of the horrifying 2004 attack.

Constand, 45, a former Temple women’s basketball administrator, told jurors that Cosby knocked her out with three blue pills he called “your friends” and then penetrated her with his fingers as she lay immobilised, unable to resist or say no.

It was the only criminal case to arise from a barrage of allegations from 62 women who have publicly said the former TV star drugged and molested them over a span of five decades.

Constand sat stone-faced in the first row but tilted her head back and breathed a sigh of relief after jurors were formally polled.

One of his victims, Lili Bernard, burst into tears as the verdicts were read, prompting Judge O’Neill to call for order in the Montgomery County courtroom.

COSBY TO APPEAL: ‘FIGHT IS NOT OVER’

Cosby waved to the crowd outside the courthouse, got into a car and left without comment.

Cosby’s lawyer Tom Mesereau, who won an acquittal for Michael Jackson on child-molestation charges, says the “fight is not over” and that his client planned to appeal the verdict.

Gloria Allred, the lawyer who represented three of five of Cosby’s additional accusers, declared justice had “been done”, and that she was grateful a jury saw past “his defense attorney’s lies.”

“We are so happy that finally we can say women are believed, and not only on ‘Me Too,’ but in a court of law where they were under oath, where they testified truthfully, where they were attacked, where they were smeared, where they were denigrated, where there were attempts to discredit them and after all is said and done, women were finally believed and we thank the jury so much for that,” she said to reporters outside court.

Jimmy Savile, probably the most depraved of the lot, he was *in necropheliac amongst other things, huge conspiracies behind him too with the elite paedophile ring etc. just pure madness
 
Couple weeks ago I watched The Simpsons episode "Saturdays of Thunder". The scene where Homer is given Bill Cosby's book Fatherhood is now darkly hilarious.

Listened to BBC radio and many victim support groups think that nothing will come out of the UK inquiry into child abuse because most perpetrators are so well connected
Three chair persons of the committee had to disqualify themselves because they were close to the establishment
So far they have only tackled low hanging fruit like Harris, some washed-up DJs and Saville (they waited until he was dead despite knowing about his activities since the 70s)

Yeah they'll get away with it most likely, will probably only come to light well after all of them are deceased (if it ever actually does) an absolute joke that makes a mockery of the whole system really.

Pretty sure they were not only raping kids but murdering them too, just sick, this coming from the people who are making the rules and running countries, in a supposed civilised world.

Jimmy Savile and cover ups at the BBC probably needs it's own thread. Hard to know where to start. A place called Elm Guest House in Barnes West London is apparently where many boys were taken for VIPs and abused, Cliff Richards was known to have gone there as well.

It's said some boys weren't seen again. (Unproven)

Then there was the murder of Jill Dando, leading crime reporter at the BBC. She was about to blow the lid on something huge and was shot in the head just outside her front door before she could break the story. She was also a friend of Cliff Richards.
