Bill Cosby Sexual Assault Case Declared A Mistrial

One of Cosby’s legal team staffers, Angela Agrusa, also had strong words for the prosecution. To quote her exactly:

“Juries are stuck when a prosecutor seeks to put someone in prison for things that are simply not presented in the courtroom. And the jury stuck to what they were asked to do and that is to review the evidence before them and there simply wasn’t enough.”

Exactly 12 days ago, USA Herald predicted the prosecution’s difficulty in obtaining a conviction and asserted the lack of substance and credibility of evidence. Dead witnesses, blurred memories, and Cosby’s near blindness were not helpful elements throughout the trial.

Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele announced the prosecution’s plans to “move forward as soon as possible” by “evaluating and reviewing our case.” He noted that Andrea Constand, one of Cosby’s many accusers deserved a verdict and congratulated her testimony and participation in the trial.

Gloria Allred, who represents another one of Cosby’s plethora of accusers, Linda Kirkpatrick, made the following statement: “We can never underestimate the blinding power of celebrity, but justice will come. If the court allows more accusers to testify, it might make a difference. In other words, it’s too early to celebrate Mr. Cosby. Round two may be just around the corner.“
