Bill Cosby found guilty of three counts of sexual assault

 

 

Bill Cosby has been found guilty of three counts of sexual assault. The 80-year-old actor has been on trial in Pennsylvania for drugging and assaulting former basketball player Andrea Constand in 2004. He faces a possible maximum prison sentence of 15 to 30 years, but will remain out of jail until he is sentenced, the judge ruled. The jury announced its verdict after less than two days of deliberation. It came as vindication for the dozens of women who have publicly accused Mr Cosby of sexual harassment or attempted abuse. In addition to Andrea Constand, five women testified for the prosecution at the trial. Mr Cosby did not testify in his own defence.
