After six days of deliberation in Bill Cosby’s trial, where he was charged with three counts of felony aggravated indecent assault, Mrs. Camille Cosby has now spoken out after the mistrial verdict was announced.
In case you’ve been sleep for most of the day, the jury in Bill Cosby’s case failed to come up with a unanimous vote for a second time. That lead to a mistrial of Cosby’s case, in which a former Temple University employee, Andrea Constand, claimed that 13 years ago, he’d sexually molested her when she went to visit him at his home for dinner.
Camille Cosby: ‘D.A. Is Heinous & Exploitative, Judge Is Arrogant’
After the verdict was read, Bill Cosby shared a lengthy statement on Twitter, from his wife and let’s just say that Camille is putting the term “stand by your man” to full use. She went off on many involved in the case for attempting to target her husband for gain. She referred to the Pennsylvania district attorney as ‘heinous and exploitative’ and the judge presiding over the case as “arrogantly collaborating with the district attorney.”
Camille’s statement wasn’t all angry though, she did take the time to thank the jurors “who tenaciously fought to review the evidence,” noting that that is the correct way to fairly deliberate a case. She then thanked Bill Cosby’s legal team- attorneys Brian McMonagle and Angela Agrusa- for their passion and thorough research in representing her husband.

Two High Profile Cases Get Emotional Reactions In Less Than 24 Hours
Within less than 24 hours, we’ve all witnessed two high profile trial cases that have received emotionally charged, mixed reactions that are still being expressed by millions as we speak: Philando Castile’s killer, police officer Jeronimo Yanez, was found not guilty of ALL charges. While Cosby’s trial ended in a hung jury.
The only difference between the two is that the world got to witness one of these situations with their own eyes. Philando Castile’s murder, was caught on camera as his girlfriend Live streamed it on Facebook, when the murderous officer slaughtered him in cold blood for no apparent reason. Philando appeared to be in full compliance with the officer’s commands when he was shot multiple times in the chest, as he and his girlfriend’s young daughter cried in the back seat of their vehicle. So the fact that there are actually ‘mixed’ reactions regarding the acquittal of Philando’s killer is unbelievable (but not really)…
As for Cosby’s case, the public’s mixed reactions are understandable because none of us were there to witness the sexual encounter, except Cosby and Andrea Constand. So it was a case of his word against hers, along with the evidence presented to the jurors. The prosecuting attorneys in Cosby’s case have now vowed to take the case to court again eventually.
