Cosby files appeal over testimony from other women accusers

Comedian Bill Cosby has filed a lengthy appeal of the sex assault conviction that landed him in prison, complaining the testimony of five other accusers was"strikingly dissimilar" to the pending felony charges and should not have been aired in court.

The appeal, filed in Pennsylvania Superior Court, attacks Cosby's conviction on a number of grounds that have been central to the case, and argued repeatedly, since his December 2015 arrest. The defense has long argued that any testimony from other accusers would unfairly stack the deck against Cosby, given that he was never charged in those cases. Cosby's lawyers have also complained that many of the accounts are decades old, and nearly impossible to defend.

They also said O'Neill should have stepped down over an alleged feud with a former prosecutor who had declined to charge Cosby when Constand first went to police in 2005.

Pleeze bracelet this man, Where is he going!?

I want him to lose his appeal and rot in prison but at the same time I see the injustice as others like him are free and doing as they please jailharveyweinstein
