Lawyers fear’s of life imprisonment for Bill Cosby

Bill Cosby’s law team wants to get the fallen star out of prison. They fear for the life of the 82-year-old actor because of the corona crisis, “New York Post” reports. The lawyers plan to go to court this week to allow Cosby to serve the rest of his sentence at home.

“He has nowhere to go, he’s old and he’s blind”

“We believe it is only a matter of time before Mr. Cosby’s prison is hit by the virus. Such an enclosed space is the perfect place for a virus to spread quickly. That is reckless with prison staff and vulnerable prisoners, “said Cosby’s lawyers. According to them, people have already been infected in prison, but the institution did not want to confirm that.

Cosby, who has not yet been tested for the corona virus, is doing well. “We don’t want a test wasted on him when he has no symptoms. But our concern is that he’s in a difficult situation.”

The American ex-comedian was found guilty of three sexual abuse charges in April 2018. He was sentenced to between three and ten years’ imprisonment. According to his lawyers, Cosby is not a danger to society and he could serve his sentence at home. “He has nowhere to go, he’s old and he’s blind. He can stay home with an ankle strap, as he has done before, while his wife takes care of him. Let him spend his time at home.”
