By Nexstar Media Wire Jun 30, 2021 | 5:42 PM PHILADELPHIA (NEXSTAR) — Pennsylvania’s highest court threw out Bill Cosby’s sexual assault conviction and released him from prison Wednesday in a stunning reversal of fortune for the comedian once known as “America’s Dad,” ruling that the prosecutor who brought the case was bound by his predecessor’s agreement not to charge Cosby. Cosby, 83, flashed the V-for-victory sign to a helicopter overhead as he trudged into his suburban Philadelphia home after serving nearly three years of a three- to 10-year sentence for drugging and violating Temple University sports administrator Andrea Constand in 2004. Cosby, who did not speak during a news conference held outside his home, tweeted an old photo of himself with his fist raised and eyes closed, and a statement thanking supporters.
