Bill Cosby vows no remorse, expects to serve 10-year maximum

COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. (AP) — Bill Cosby says he’s prepared to serve his 10-year maximum sentence for sexual assault rather than show remorse for a crime the comedian says he didn’t commit.

Cosby is serving three to 10 years in a state prison near Philadelphia after a jury last year convicted him of sexually assaulting a Temple University employee in 2004. The 82-year-old says the Pennsylvania parole board is “not going to hear me say that I have remorse.” He thinks it’s therefore unlikely he’ll be released early.

He made the comments in a phone interview on Sunday with BlackPressUSA as he appeals his felony conviction and sex offender status.

Legal experts say sex offenders typically must show remorse to be considered for parole.

inflict further suffering on the victims. Sort of like Epstein's last minute legal attempts to partition money to where it could not be sued for by his victims.

Are you really that stupid? You're 82 and you're willing to stay in the can till you're 92?

You're a criminal, a cad and a cockwomble. Rot away, loser.
