1) From ABC News, I’m Daria Albinger. Bill Cosby’s home with sexual assault conviction overturned. The actor and comedian’s attorney Jennifer Bonjean, “Thankfully, they thought the way that we thought, where we always believed full, fully, that he never should have been prosecuted because there was an agreement made. He relied on that agreement, and you can’t have a system where prosecutors don’t hold up to their words.” Pennsylvania’s highest court said the decision not to charge Cosby by prosecutors in 2005 should have prevented him from being charged by different prosecutors years later. “He is a sociopath. He is a serial rapist.” Victoria Valentino tells ABC news she is disturbed because Cosby gets to go free. “My stomach is lurching and I am deeply distressed about being justice of the whole thing.” She claims Cosby drugged and raped her in 1969 but Cosby’s former TV wife is celebrating his release. Phylicia Rashad tweeting quoted a terrible wrong is being righted. A miscarriage of justice is corrected. Jason Nathanson, ABC News, Hollywood.
