After 60 accusers, a stand-up comedy routine that brought the allegations into the national spotlight, and two trials, Bill Cosby was sentenced to 3 to 10 years in prison on Sept. 25, 2018, for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004. Known for decades as "America's Dad," the nation watched as Cosby was labeled a "sexually violent predator" then led away in handcuffs. "For decades, the defendant has been able to hide his true self and hide his crimes using his fame and fortune. He's hidden behind a character created, Dr. Cliff Huxtable," Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele said. "Finally, Bill Cosby has been unmasked, and we have seen the real man as he is headed off to prison." For many of his accusers, Cosby's sentence was a day of reckoning, though for very few others, like his publicist, Andrew Wyatt, it was "the most racist and sexist trial in the history of the United States." - culled
