Bill Cosby"s Guilty Verdict is "Mob Justice," Says Wife Camille
Bill Cosby is the victim of a lynch mob and straight-up got a heavy dose of mob justice in his sexual assault case … this according to his wife. Camille Cosby lashed out and viciously defended her husband of 54 years after he was found…
Camille Cosby Blames Husband"s Guilty Verdict on "Mob Justice," Racism
Camille Cosby is standing by her man.
No matter how many women he almost definitely raped.
One of those women is named Andrea Constand, and Bill Cosby was found guilty on three counts of aggravated sexual assault against her late last month.
He faces a decade in prison as a result of the verdict.
The outcome came about 10 months after Cosby’s original trial ended with a deadlocked jury, amid numerous other allegations of sexual assault against Cosby.
Overall, approximately 60 women have accused the comedian of drugging them and taking advantage of them.
But Camille Cosby isn’t having it.
She has released a stunning, lengthy statement that defends her husband and blames a combination of racism and media biased for his guilty verdict.
“‘We the people’ are the first three words of our nation’s Constitution, but who were those people in 1787?” began Cosby in her three-page statement, which was released Thursday morning by spokesman Andrew Wyatt.
To what is Camille referring here?
The color of the skin of our Founding Fathers and how African-Americans have essentially not been giving a fair deal ever since this nation was founded.
Continues the 74-year old:
“Now enters an American citizen, Bill Cosby.
“The overall media, with their frenzied, relentless demonization of him and unquestioning acceptance of accusers’ allegations without any attendant proof, have superseded the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, which guarantee due process and equal protection, and thereby eliminated the possibility of a fair trial and unbiased jury.”
Yeah.
Wow, huh? There’s a lot to take in there.
“Once again, an innocent person has been found guilty based on an unthinking, unquestioning, unconstitutional frenzy propagated by the media and allowed to play out in a supposed court of law,” she also says.
“Bill Cosby was labelled as guilty because the media and accusers said so… period. And the media ensured the dissemination of that propaganda by establishing barricades preventing the dissemination of the truth in violation of the protections of the First Amendment.
“Are the media now the people’s judges and juries?”
No, of course.
In this case, an actual judge and actual jury decided Bill Cosby’s fate.
Camille is arguing, however, that their decision-making was influenced by the many articles written over the past several months regarding accusations against her husband.
And she doesn’t believe any of the alleged victims.
“Since when are all accusers truthful?” Camille asks, referencing Constand and adding:
“I firmly believe her recent testimony during trial was perjured; as was shown at trial, it was unsupported by any evidence and riddled with innumerable, dishonest contradictions.”
In her statement, Camille likened her husband to martyred Emmett Till and other black men falsely accused of rape by white women:
“These are just two of many tragic instances of our justice system utterly and routinely failing to protect African Americans falsely accused in so-called courts of law and the entirely unfair court of public opinion.”
She wants to see a “criminal investigation” opened into the actions of the “district attorney and his cohorts,” who she labels as exploitive and corrupt.
“Someday the truth will prevail,” concluded Camille. “It always does.”
Constand’s lawyer, Dolores Troiani, issued a brief response Thursday morning.
She said the truth has already prevailed and, smartly, left it at that:
“Twelve honorable people – a jury of Cosby’s peers – have spoken. There is nothing more that needs to be said.”
Bill Cosby has said nothing publicly since he was convicted on April 26.
He will be sentenced at some point in the next two to three months.

War Machine on Assault Verdict: God is Using Me for Good!
Jonathan Paul Koppenhaver – a former mixed martial arts fighter better known by the unfortunately apt nickname War Machine – was found guilty yesterday of kidnapping, beating and sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend over several months in 2014.
The ex-brawler was also convicted on charges of beating up a male friend of Christy Mack after he found the two of them together in her bedroom.
While jurors ended up in a deadlock in regard to two attempted-murder counts against War Machine, they convicted him of 29 total felonies stemming from attacks on Mack and Corey Thomas.
Mack spent eight hours on the witness stand during the trial, often crying as she said she was beaten and raped by Koppenhaver numerous times in the months prior to the attack on her and Thomas.
Back in August of 2014, Mack released a lengthy statement on these assaults, providing the public with stomach-turning photos of what War Machine did to her.
After making a run for it, War Machine was eventually arrested in a hotel room outside Los Angeles shortly after a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Just days before his verdict was reached, meanwhile, War Machine released a lengthy statement of his own.
It was posted on Twitter and it sort of found him taking responsibility for his actions.
But it mostly was used by Koppenhaver to paint himself as some kind of instrument of God, while also serving as a denial to a number of the charges against him.
“Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all,” War Machine started his Tweet storm on March 15, adding:
“Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me the foremost, Jesus might demonstrate his perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in him for eternal life – 1 Timothy 1:15-16.”
He then continued as follows:
“I’ve offered to sign any number of plea agreements, I’ve begged for the opportunity to take a lie detector test, I’ve done everything in my power to resolve this issue, but the D.A. wants a media circus… So here we go.
“It’s no mystery; I found the woman I loved in bed with another man and I made some poor choices, Choices that I feel horrible for, regret and know that I must be punished for…
“But I DIDN’T do all the crap they’re accusing me of and I do not deserve that crazy amount of time being thrown at me.”
As part of the case against War Machine, the jury saw photos of Mack with a broken nose, missing teeth, fractured eye socket and leg injuries. She also suffered a lacerated liver.
The kidnapping and sexual assault with a weapon charges each could earn the fighter up to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
“I know not what the outcome of this trial will be, it’s in gods hands,” the now-convicted felon wrote last week.
“Whatever that outcome may be, however, this has been a huge blessing in my life. God has used this for good; I have found him, submitted to him, and have been transformed in miraculous ways.
“For the first time in my life that huge hole in my heart and soul has been filled and I am at peace… I wouldn’t trade it for anything. All that’s left is to learn where god wants me to serve him.”
As you can read above, War Machine (again, unaware of his fate at the time) concluded:
Will I be his witness behind these walls and used to shepherd the lost sheep within the prison system?
Or does God plan for me once again to be free, and to show the entire world the infinite power Jesus has to transform even the most lost of men?
May his will be done. I want to thank my good friend and attorney @Brandon_sua for his hard work and for sticking by my side when most all have fled to my beautiful sisters and to all the wonderful pen pals who I now consider my friends thanks for everything.
Sentencing has been scheduled for June 5.
