Bill Crosby found guilty

[Nancy5]

He is found guilty on all 3 counts.  Looking at a possible jail term of 10 years on each count for a total of 30 years.  Your thoughts?

I had just read this and was posting when you were!

its a toss up.  so many women make false claims about celebrities raping them or sexually abusing them.  its hard to believe. on the other hand many women are raped or sexually abused and no one believes them. I don't know what to think.  30 years in jail hes up there in years so if that is the correct sentence he will be dead in jail. if I'm not mistaken hes in his late 80's.  our justice system is so bad in many cases lately the guilty go free and the innocent get no justice.

How on earth would you know that "so many women" make false claims? It's women like you who give women a bad name.

In my experience, yes, there are a few here and there who make false claims. However, that is not the usual case.

If a woman claims she was raped, chances are, she was. Men in show business have been getting away with this crap for years.

Stop trying to be a member of the boy's club.

I have mixed feelings about it. Why have all of these women waited years before coming forth? Seems like when 1 women  says something the  more jump on the band wagon. Not with just him but many other men in the public eye. And  I also wonder if all of it is true. Guess it depends on a jury.  Poor man will die in prison. And for what to make a few women rich.  I would be ashamed of putting myself in the position  in the first place. I  have also taken care of a man trying to be sexual to me. Knocked him down and kicked him. And all he did was keep touching me when and where I did not want him too. Lost my job but  taught him a lesson. And there was a darn thing he could do about it. But he steered clear of me  from then on.

Are you kidding? Some of these women DID say something. However, when you work in an industry run by men, no one listens.

Trump being a misogynistic basshat has a lot to do with it. Women no longer feel safe in a country run by a man who behaves like an eternal fratboy.

I have no mixed feelings about it. As I said, men have been getting away with this for years, and it's about time that women feel comfortable enough to do something.

It cannot be easy standing up, and knowing that people like YOU are going to doubt them.

For every "one" who is "jumping on the bandwagon," there are ten who are telling the truth.

Nope, I HAVE to put my faith in other women.

I find your comment about women "putting themselves" in that position extremely offensive. It is not our place to walk on tippie toes to avoid misogynists and rapists.

You got lucky. You could just have easily lost that fight.

You and Katie really should never speak in public. And beware of karma, one day, you are going to know someone in that situation. Let's see how you feel then.

The 50s are calling, go back to the kitchen where belong with that mentality.

im not surprised and i hope we can now move on to something else

[kaat1220]

And that "poor man" is finally right where he belongs.

[mamatygress]

There were way too many women.  And he admitted drugging them.  To him it was no big deal...that's what you did back then.  I loved him when he was on tv.  And his standup.  Disappointed wouldn't begin to describe how I feel about this scum.

Sounds like he could be in jail the rest of his life.

I always say you want to play you gotta pay. Sad this happened to all those women. Too bad he was not caught at an earlier age so he could pay longer. I would have never thought this of him. One just never knows what is going on behind closed doors.

I'm not surprised he was found guilty because he did some bad things however, ALL those women?? Nope. Some of those women are lying. It's all about money too and justice.

Cosby's attorneys are already stating that they will appeal the decision. This will play around in the courts for another five years, at least. And every time it goes back to court, those that have suffered will have to replay the horrible incident in their minds. Money will keep him out of jail till he dies. The same thing will happen with the president who has many more female accusers and more substantial evidence supporting the claims. We have a friend who's sister was raped to death in the military by a male soldier that admitted to doing it through his first several court appearances. He then decided he wanted to live so he started changing his story, pushed for different court venues, claimed mental illness and has been doing this for over thirty years. Avery three years the family, at their own cost, has to go testify and relive their loved one's death.

Hello!

I'm skeptical all these men all of a sudden are being punished much later after the crime. Why not earlier why now? I don't know whether Bill Crosby is guilty I just question these women credibility. He is paying for something he did so long time ago it doesn't make sense.

Thank god.  I was losing faith in the justice system.  I was mad because rich people always get away with cheating the legal system.  Not this time!  If you don't think Cosby wasn't guilty you are on drugs lol. Just watch any of his interviews talking about the allegations!
