Bill Cosby’s spokesman declared victory following a mistrial in the sexual assault case against him on Saturday. “Mr. Cosby’s power is back. It’s back,” Andrew Wyatt said. “So the legacy didn’t go anywhere. It has been restored.” Wyatt urged lawyers for Cosby's accusers, like Gloria Allred, to “go back to law school and take another class.” Prosecutors say they will retry the case against Cosby for allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004. Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele said he decided to try again after speaking to Constand. “She is entitled to a verdict in this case and we will push forward to get the job done,” he said. “We will push forward.”
