Bill Cosby sentenced to prison for sexual assault

The 81-year-old appeared in court this afternoon

Bill Cosby has been sentenced to “3 to 10 years of prison” for sexually assaulting Andrea Constand.

At the end of a two-day hearing, Judge Steven O’Neill sentenced the 81-year-old at the Montgomery county courthouse in Norristown, Pennsylvania.

The Judge called the actor a “sexually violent predator” before announcing he will go to a state prison.

The comedian was convicted earlier this year of three counts of aggravated indecent assault: administering an intoxicant, rendering his victim unconscious and penetrating her without consent.

The jury found Bill guilty of sexually assaulting Andrea Constand at his home in 2004.

Recalling the incident, Andrea claimed that Bill gave her three blue pills, which caused her to pass out. Andrea woke to find Bill penetrating her with his fingers, touching her breasts, and placing her hand on his genitals.

The former TV star denied wrongdoing, and claimed that his relationship with Andrea was consensual, and that the pills he offered her were cold medication Benadryl.

Despite the fact that over 60 women have accused Bill of abuse or harassment, this case is the only one to result in criminal charges against Bill.
