On Monday, Bill Cosby was sentenced to three to ten years in state prison for sexually assaulting a woman in 2004. Outside the courtroom, after the fallen television star learned his fate, his spokesman launched into a racially-charged rant condemning the trial as “the most racist and sexist” in the country’s history and accusing multiple people of conspiring to produce “falsified evidence.”
“This has been the most racist and sexist trial in the history of the United States,” Cosby’s spokesman Andrew Wyatt told the press after the sentencing. “Dr. Cosby has been one of the greatest civil rights leaders in the United States over the last 50 years. He has also been one of the greatest educators of men and boys over the last 50 years. This is not pointed out to the jury or allowed in court because the racist and sexist mass media was attacking and denouncing Dr. Cosby whenever his lawyers even hinted there was racist and sexism present.”
Wyatt then accused specific people involved in the trial of bigotry, including psychologists and Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele.
“All three of the psychologists who testified against Dr. Cosby were white women who make money off of accusing black men of being sexual predators,” he declared. “It is no accident that prosecutor still works so close with anti-black and anti-male activist groups who tried to extort $100 million from Dr. Cosby in 2014 and continues to produce racist and sexist publicity against him through the 35 clients.”
He went on to accuse the prosecution and even the judge of conspiring to produce “falsified evidence” against Cosby.
As The Daily Wire pointed out Monday, Wyatt also made a point of comparing Cosby to Jesus and Brett Kavanaugh. Below is video of part of his response:
Judge Steven O’Neill sentenced Cosby, 81, to three to ten years behind bars for sexually assaulting a former Temple University employee 14 years ago. He will be permanently listed as a “sexually violent predator,” CBS Philly reports, requiring him to be included on the sex-offender list and to receive lifetime counseling and quarterly reports to authorities.
