Bill Cosby’s wife has hit out her husband’s prosecution and conviction for sexual assault, describing last week’s guilty verdict as “mob justice.” In her first comments since her husband was found guilty of drugging and sexually assaulting Temple University employee Andrea Constand, Camille Cosby hit out at the media, the prosecution, and her husband’s accuser. “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relentless demonization of him and unquestioning acceptance of accusers’ allegations without any attendant proof, have superseded the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, which guarantee due process and equal protection, and thereby eliminated the possibility of a fair trial and unbiased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. Bill Cosby was labelled as guilty because the media and accusers said so,” wrote Camille Cosby. She added: “This is a homogeneous group of exploitive and corrupt people, whose primary purpose is to advance themselves professionally and economically at the expense of Mr. Cosby’s life.”
