Legendary comedian, Bill Cosby, has been found guilty on all three counts in a sexual-assault trial of drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand at his home in 2004.
Cosby’s first trial ended in a deadlock last year. The most recent one began this month. He’s faced dozens of sexual misconduct allegations.
Cosby, who once embodied the ideal American father faces a maximum sentence of 30 years and a fine of $75,000. He is 80-years-old.
NBC News reports:
Assistant Montgomery County District Attorney Kristen Feden portrayed Cosby as a sexual predator who used his TV image as a man of wholesome values to target women he believed he could silence.
Prosecutors called five other women who alleged that Cosby also sexually assaulted them in a manner similar to the way he assaulted Constand.
“He preyed on Andrea Constand the same way he preyed on all those five women,” Feden said.
A sentencing hearing has yet to be scheduled. It’s possible Cosby could spend the rest of his life in prison.
