American entertainer Bill Cosby has been released from prison to return home after his sexual conviction was overturned by Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
The 83-year-old comedian was released from the state prison in Montgomery County Wednesday afternoon.
Releasing Cosby “is the only remedy that comports with society’s reasonable expectations of its elected prosecutors and our criminal justice system,” said Justice David N. Wecht.
Cosby had already served two years of his three-to-10-year sentence.
