The problem with rape as a crime is proof. I'm more than willing to believe Cosby did what they're saying... if there's some proof. Right now there isn't. It's their 10-20-30-40 year old word against his.If this were the case it would happen all the fucking time. A guy with this kind of celebrity isn't hurting for pussy. Stars fuck naive bitches constantly with no repercussions. This dude had a fetish, or sick obsession whatever, with banging incapacitated women.
Some people online would rather defend an actual rapey fuckhead than perceive themselves as being in agreement with SJW's and that's the only thing going on here. Yeah he deserves his day in court like anyone, but where there's smoke there's fire. If his thing was little boys or girls like Jared, the court of online opinion would have long since condemned him by now. Because he's a face of patriarchal non consensual sex, he's a point to rally around in opposition to SJW's.
He admitted to them having sex. He admitted to giving her some pills. He says it was just allergy medication to help her relax and the sex was consensual; she'll state the sex wasn't consensual and the pills were offered to take advantage of her. The new evidence is apparently that in the separate civil trial he admitted to giving women pills with the intention of sleeping with them (he later said he was confused and didn't understand the question, of course).I wonder what kind of evidence there will be.
Him saying he gave another woman a pill shouldn't be admissible in this trial. Just because someone did something before doesn't mean they did it this time. That whole line of questioning should be excluded. Its not evidence of what he did THIS time. It's just inadmissible character evidence.He admitted to them having sex.

If it goes to trial they'll ask the jury to do the math. He has admitted under oath to giving women pills with the intent to have sex with them. He gave this woman pills and then had sex with her. She says it wasn't consensual but she was too drugged to stop it. The prosecutor will ask the jury to ask themselves why, of all the alleged incidents and Cosby himself admitting to giving women pills to have sex with them, the jury should believe/assume this particular incident was just a consensual misunderstanding?
Cosby may or may not be a perv, may or may not be guilty, etc. But guilt or not he's in a pretty tight spot at this point.
Uhh, its the same woman his lawyers settled the civil dispute with.Him saying he gave another woman a pill shouldn't be admissible in this trial. Just because someone did something before doesn't mean they did it this time. That whole line of questioning should be excluded. Its not evidence of what he did THIS time. It's just inadmissible character evidence.
She looks like a female version of this guyShe kind of looks like Howard Stern with the shades on.
M.O. or plan.Him saying he gave another woman a pill shouldn't be admissible in this trial. Just because someone did something before doesn't mean they did it this time. That whole line of questioning should be excluded. Its not evidence of what he did THIS time. It's just inadmissible character evidence.
it goes further than that, he started scolding black people on how to talk and act and it put him right in the uncle tom category. he was no longer a hollywood elite because he was no longer "down with the struggle" and as you said, his earning days were over and they had no more use for him. Polanski is a piece of shit rapist and deserves his have his balls cut off.The line in Hollywood seems to be how much money is to be made. Cosby is old and no longer able to earn or give people work so under the bus he goes. Look at Marky Mark. The guy beat an elderly Asian man with a stick while screaming racial slurs so severely he blinded him in one eye. However he still makes people money so he gets a pass from the liberal elite in Hollywood. Cosby simply no longer offered them any value so out he goes.
It was not a one time thing with Polanski. The guy is a straight up pedo.A lot of it comes down to the persona of the person and public perception. Cosby was always perceived as a family-friendly actor, so people tend to feel more betrayed vs. a director that didn't produce family friendly products and was less visible. Polanski also gets the "my pregnant wife was murdered by the Manson cult" card to play to explain why he did a fucked up thing, whereas Cosby comes across as "I'm the king of media, time for me to claim my prize!", which obviously less people with empathize with.
There is also the time frames involved. To most people in their 30s or 40s, they were either small kids or not even born in the 70s. With the exception of super recent stuff, most of them aren't even familiar with Polanski's work I imagine, so it comes across as "obscure" director in the fucked up 70s did some fucked up thing. Whereas with Cosby, that same demographic grew up watching the Cosby Show and him sell Jello. He is more "real" to them and more likely to be part of their childhood, so the reaction is stronger.
