Powerful. Hes begging them to end this case. He says constand is lying and so is another accuser who testified about a 1996 assault and they say the only reason the case was carried out is because cosbys 2005 deposition where he admitted to getting quaaludes in 1970 was unsealed. It had nothing to do with party drugs and theres no proof thats what he gave constand. Camille cosby sat on one side of the courtroom, constand on the other. Perhaps the first time the two were together in the same room. Up next in Late Afternoon is the zrigt attorney for his closing argument. He was kevin field who in his election bid to become d. A. Promised to get bill cosby in a campaign ad. Hes going to spend the rest of the afternoon trying to convince them to convict him. Deanna durante, nbc10 news. Well hear from deanna live in a few minutes. But first, again today cosby brought his wife camille to the courthouse for this last day of her husbands testimony in this trial. We spoke to bill cosbys spokesperson about the significance of that. Heres what he had to say. She came in holding his hand. You got to see her. It wasnt a show. It was real. It was real love. 53 years that they have been together and she was here to show that im not going to stand for this ill stand by my husband no matter what they try to paint him, im sticking by him. Coming up at 4 30 our nbc10 news legal analyst is going to be joining me live here from the courthouse to talk about cosbys wife camille showing up to the trial today. What her appearance could mean for his defense . Right now i want to get right to Deanna Durante. You were in the courtroom. You just came out. Where do we stand at this point . Does the jury have the case . Reporter not yet. Right now is a very critical time for the jury. This is when theyre instructed on the law. Everything theyve heard, the evidence the opinions of the lawyers, they will take that but they have to apply it as the way the law is written when it comes to these three counts. They havent gotten those instructions yet. The three counts are indecent aggravated Sexual Assault and they all apply differently whether or not Andrea Constand was conscious, whether she was given this drug that he described in his previous sworn testimony and whether or not she was able to consent and one thing that kevin field the d. A. Hammered, he spoke for almost two hours telling them that the words of each of them should come into play here. Bill cosby who never took the stand but his deposition when she sued him in 2005 as well as his Police Reports in 2005. She never said yes but he just went for permission physically, touching her in different areas. She never said yes. Andrea constands own words on the stand, she never consented to any kind of Sexual Activity with bill cosby. Kevin field wanting to make sure that the jury really got that even putting up the transcripts already of what Andrea Constand said last week, that she never said yes to any kind of Sexual Activity with bill cosby. Talk to me about that moment when bill cosby confirmed for the judge that he would not testify in his own defense. Typically that happens outside the presence of the jury but cosbys a comedian. He waved can you see me now, judge. Can you see me over here . This was all outside the presence of the jury and its what they call colloquy. Its just very quickly a couple of questions. Have you talked to your attorney, are you confident with your legal advice, do you want to take the stand in your own defense . No. Is this your own choice . Yes. I do your honor, very quick and then they move on. Camille cosby in court today. She walked into that courtroom. We havent seen him with any of his Family Members at this trial until today. It was very significant. This has been a very controlled trial. This is not your typical trial. Once the doors are closed, people cannot come in. Those doors were closed and bill cosby walks in, then camille walks in. Walks in front of the gallery and sits down the defense side of the courtroom there, but she did not return after the lunch break. She did not. So she was there for the morning session but not this afternoon, but again the first time weve seen her with her husband of 53 years during this trial. The defense team trying to say that the family didnt show until now because they wanted to shield them from the media circus and everything thats going on here thats what his spokeman said on friday. You go back in. Youll listen as the jury is instructed, correct . At this point i think its too late for me to get back in because the doors will be closed. I came out here to give you an update. The judge is assuming itll take about 45 minutes to an hour to charge the jury. This judge does choose his words carefully. The jurys ordering dinner right now and were expected to be here until 10, 11 00 tonight. Thanks for that insight and coming out here to know the latest.
