What's happened in the Bill Cosby trial so far?

Opinions on the Bill Cosby Accusations from TWT listeners

rom TWT social media I find this a hard call. It's like all your life you heard candy is fine but liquor is quicker. I think men have done this for years. Working and being in clubs and affairs. I have heard men lead into conversations offering drugs. Maybe I am seeing wrong, because to force someone to do something against their wishes is wrong. Also I see these women came back several times. I can't look at it like the perverts that use Date Rape drugs. I remember back in the day we played the "Spanish Fly" game. I mean it is still being played. I wouldn't go to see a woman without some wine. I honestly don't know what a quaalude does so I have to many questions. I do agree he is slimy for doing that to his wife while all the time trying to show men how to be men. He will forever have to live with that.

-Ok, my opinion is that Bill Cosby should be viewed with the same disdain as any other sex offender/predator. i think the people who are riding hard for him have to remember two things...1. The accused is NOT Heath Huxtable, the beloved TELEVISION dad that many of us wished that we had, he is NOT the beloved Jello Pudding pushing spokesperson that we grew up watching...nor is he simply the creator and voice of Fat Albert...this is just a MAN (yes a Black man) who had access and privilege who was used to getting what he wanted yet possibly wanted even more CONTROL than he was naturally given by slipping women DRUGS to have complete and total control over them. Secondly, SOME of the alleged victims were BLACK women...those are the people I'm riding with...they are worthy of being believed! Before Becky #1, #2, #3 etc. came out lets not forget Beverly Johnson who came out FIRST...she all but got crucified for speaking out and telling what Cosby allegedly did to her. And finally, for all of the folks giving him a pass and saying that the women who are now accusing him participated in consensual sex....his azz was still married, so in the best case scenario he is STILL a lowdown scumbag! He gets no pass for being a Black man either because he was VERY critical of other Black comedians and of Black Youth Culture. I still love his work, he opened a lot of doors for people, but that does not negate the fact that he may be a sexual predator and needs to be dealt with accordingly. I just wish they would have gone after other Hollywood sexual predators (like Roman Polanski) with the same fervor! -

 ​ from TWT social media Wow... Are you sure you want me to get in this, lol? I agree wholeheartedly with XXX. Besides that, what Cannot be ignored is his sworn and sealed testimony in 2005 where he Admitted he obtained quaaludes For The Purpose of using them to have illicit sex with women, only he says he never went through with it - Bulls#%√! And so now Im supposed to believe that out of the woodwork comes 30+ women saying that you did just that with Nothing to gain from it?? Bill... GTFOH, bruh!
