Bill Cosby goes to trial on June 5 and has hired hands down the best criminal defense attorney in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to represent him, Brian McMonagle. We’re predicting a Not Guilty verdict.
Here’s the full story from the AP:
PITTSBURGH (AP) — One-third of the potential jurors questioned in Bill Cosby’s sex assault case Monday said they’ve formed opinions about his guilt or innocence while the majority said it would be difficult to spend several weeks sequestered across the state.
And 35 of the 100 people questioned said they or a family member or close friend has been the victim of a sexual assault. Jurors are being selected this week in Pittsburgh for the trial that begins June 5 in suburban Philadelphia.
The case against the once wildly popular actor-comedian has attracted worldwide publicity that the judge hopes to shield from jurors during the trial.
The initial questioning Monday suggested it may take some time to find an unbiased jury. The judge has not yet ruled on anyone’s qualification to serve, but was expected to question people individually throughout the afternoon.
