Bill Cosby was convicted in 2018 of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in 2004.

The state's highest court ruled that a"non-prosecution agreement" Cosby struck with a previous prosecutor should have prevented him from being charged in the case.

"For these reasons, Cosby's convictions and judgment of sentence are vacated, and he is discharged," the judges wrote.The former entertainer has been accused of sexual misconduct or rape by more than 60 women, but none of the other allegations have resulted in charges. Cosby has maintained he never engaged in non-consensual sex.

Constand first reported the alleged assault in 2005 to then-Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce Castor Jr. Castor ultimately decided not to file any charges, but Cosby gave testimony in the case that he gave quaaludes to women he was pursuing for sex.

He is still convicted

Garbage made into salad with and by multi-millions paid lawyers. A justice system run on dollars and privilege.

Why is the 7th Circuit Appellate Court protecting, defending, and/or working in concert with the Department of Justice and their deliberate discriminatory practices with the Whistleblower Act of 2013, amended 2016? This is a 'black' man's experience.
