FRAIL BILL COSBY: CHARGED...BOOKED...& RELEASED ON BAIL

Meet Karma! Bill Cosby leaned on a cane as he exited a Pennsylvania courthouse after he was arraigned on felony rape and indecency charges today.

The frail comedian was flanked by a man and a woman.

Cosby, who wore a gray sweater and carried a briefcase, entered the Elkins Park, PA. courthouse and posted 10% of his $1 million bail in Cash and asked to hand over his passport.


He nearly tripped on the sidewalk as dozens of photographers snapped photos and shouted his name.

The 78-year-old married father of 5 was charged with sexually assaulting former Temple employee Andrea Constand at his Elkins Park, Pennsylvania mansion in January 2004.  

Cosby claims that Constand did not ask him to stop at any point.  He then admitted to giving her a blueberry muffin and some tea when she awoke early the next morning.
He also said the two had 'petted and kissed' several times in the past, and that he 'liked the petting and touching.'

When asked if he had ever had sexual intercourse with Constand he said 'never asleep or awake.'

Constand then launched her civil suit against Cosby, a man she called her 'mentor,' in March 2005, after no criminal charges were filed against the actor. Cosby settled that suit for undisclosed terms in 2006. 

Parts of Cosby's deposition from that lawsuit were unsealed earlier this year also, and reveal that thge actor admitted to obtaining Quaaludes to give to women.

After the arraignment, attorney Gloria Allred announced her intention to file civil lawsuits against Cosby for 29 of 50 women who claim they were raped by Cosby.

“In Pennsylvania, there is now a journey to justice for Mr. Bill Cosby,” said Allred during a press conference at her California office. “I will now be carefully monitoring the progress of his criminal case.”

Allred offered to provide her clients to testify in Cosby’s criminal case. She said Cosby retained “700 attorneys” to defend him against accusations leveled by one of her clients.

Montgomery County District Attorney-Elect Kevin Steele attempted to justify the arrest warrant at a press conference on Wednesday.

“A prosecutor’s job is to follow the evidence wherever it leads and whenever it comes to light,” Steele said. “Upon examination of all the evidence, today we are able to seek justice on behalf of the victim.”

Steele said Cosby “made two sexual advances at [Constand] that were rejected.” He added, “Mr. Cosby urged her to take pills and to drink wine, the effect of which left her unable to” reject his advances.

Constand, 42, works as a massage therapist in Canada.
