Bill Cosby loses appeal to overturn sexual assault conviction.
"Here, the time period in question is substantial, especially in relation to existing case law. Nevertheless, several factors tend to demonstrate" that the value of the"evidence remains strong, despite that substantial time gap," the appeals court said, citing"distinctive similarities between the additional testimony and Cosby's assault of Constand.
Cosby had also argued that he was hurt at trial by a deposition he gave in Constand's civil lawsuit against him. The comic icon claimed he only consented to give that testimony because previous Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce Castor had promised not to prosecute him. "Additionally, no order granting Appellant immunity from prosecution was previously sought by Appellant or Mr. Castor," the appeals court added.
