Bill Cosby CONVICTED- 3 counts- max 10 years per count. Will it be consecutive or concurrent sentences?

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/26/arts/television/bill-cosby-guilty-retrial.html

NORRISTOWN, Pa. — A jury found Bill Cosby guilty Thursday of drugging and sexually assaulting a young woman at his home near here 14 years ago, capping the downfall of one of the world’s best-known entertainers, and offering a measure of satisfaction to the dozens of women who for years have accused him of similar assaults against them.

On the second day of its deliberations at the Montgomery County Courthouse in this town northwest of Philadelphia, the jury returned to convict Mr. Cosby of aggravated indecent assault against Andrea Constand, at the time a Temple University employee he had mentored.

It doesn't matter, The guy is 80 so he won't make it out. I feel sorry for his wife. Him, not so much.

Well she stayed with him. Now she should toss the bugger aside.
Needless to say, the defense will appeal, but does this conviction open him the civil suits?

From Mark Garagos (CNN)- Cosby could be remanded into custody. Laura Coates CNN, if not remanded into custody, then possible he could receive probation???
 
LMAO Clinton gets away with it but they lock up my man Cosby

Clinton drugged someone and had sex with them while they were unconcious? You sure about that?

He may never see the inside of a jail. Appeals take time. He could be dead before all appeals are exhausted. Or, he may move out of the country.
 
My mother passed twenty years ago. She would be so disappointed in Cosby. She was a big fan of the ahead of it’s time tv series, “I SPY.”

Truth be told many were. Then we have those that with 30 plus women's allegations, that these women were all lying and after money. Really, named and shamed in the press, dragged thru the dirt, their whole life investigated by Cosby Lawyers and PI's. Now who in the F would want to go thru that and it has been ongoing for years
During/after the 1st trial it was clear to me he was as guilty as sin
 
Evidence was pretty overwhelming....Still sad to see....A great talent , his legacy will be forever tarnished

Or flee the country?

Fleeing would be a little difficult considering his fame and the fact that he is a very old man with almost no eyesight.
OTOH: If anybody has enough money to do it...
 
It was reported that Cosby arrived in the courtroom leaning heavily on his cane and walked with some difficulty to his seat. At the conclusion Cosby was noticeably spryer and managed to bless out the prosecutor and wave his cane around! Guilty will heal you!

He could, in Canada a person is permitted 1 valid passport. Different in the US as I found out when Mantafort had to surrender 3

Many countries have no extradition treaties with the US.

I can't wait for all those typical unnamed people to come through here and show their hypocrisy for the whole world to see. A sexual predator is a sexual predator no matter to which political party a person sold her soul.

He owns a private jet.
