“The Pennsylvania Supreme Court gave Bill Cosby a ‘get out of jail free’ card today. The original prosecutor had promised Cosby he wouldn’t be charged criminally if he’d agree to testify in a civil trial. Cosby took him up on the offer and incriminated himself when he was compelled to testify. (Apparently you can’t cop the Fifth in a civil trial.) Then a new prosecutor took over, ignored the agreement and used Cosby’s testimony against him in a criminal trial. And off to the slammer he went. Now that the state Supreme Court has set things straight America’s Dad is a free man who has admitted to a crime.” -CB
