WPVI Nightline June 27, 2017
Health care to montms around th world. And lean back rapper reigniting with nicki minaj. With an onstage dis, what she said and why this is real. But first the night line five. Good evening. Thanks for joining us. Tonight a juroror from the bill cosby trial takes us inthe jury room. Why he feels bad it all ended in deadlock and the one piece of evidence he felt leaded toed guilt. Some might call it the mistrial of the century, the Sexual Harassment case with bill cosby. Sexual harassment trial of bill cosby ending this morning. Moments ago the judge declaring a mistrial. Tensions and tears from the jurors who endured 52 hours of deliberations. You dont want to be picked for Something Like that. 21yearold was youngest on the jury and knew the comedian as dr. Huxtable from the cosby show. After what he calls two agonizing weeks in the trial his view changed. I thought he was guilt ji. You didnt always feel that way. No. He was one of the 12 all tasked with cosbys fate. What purr situated y s what swayed. Just peoples comments. People were going stir crazy. You are stuck in a small room with 11 other people. One thing win person might do might drive you insane. Did you feel the size of the room had impact. It got smaller every day. Why deliberate every day. If we quick just like that he could be getting away with something. You want to be extra sure. The most intense moment i think was when there was about four people crying in the room, one was out in the hallway, pacing, visibly upset. She just couldnt handle it. On the sixth day of deliberations that jury was deadlocked. I want to thank the jury for their long days. Their honest work. A mistrial declared in the 79yearold comedians case and he walked out a free man. The jury was told to only focus on the evidence presented bied but theres no denying cosbys presence still loomed large. I think if it was a regular joe wouldnt have taken that long. It was particularly stressful because theres an unusual situation where they were sequestered. Its unusual for the judge to allow that. They may be more or less influenced by their own emotional response whether or not theyre aware of it. Theres nothing to indicate so far that jurors ignored the evidence. In highprofile cases in particular jurors are very careful to abide by the law because they know the world is waching. Do you think Something Different could have happened to change the outcome. Evidence. If there was more substantial evidence wed have had a better verdict. Can you say one point that made you think boy hes guilty. He said in 2005 deposition when they asked when you use the word consent he said i wouldnt use that word. This reprieve may be temporary, prosecutors are vowing to retry the case. Our plan is to move this case forward as soon as possible. By many accounts cosby had already been deemed guilty in the court of Public Opinion after more than 50ed women came forward accusing him of Sexual Misconduct and in some cases drugging them. But this was about andrea constand. This is the only case statue limitation had not expired. She accused cosby of giving her three blue pills and sexually assaulting her and they pointed out inconsistency in her statements to police and now another juror who wanted to be anonymous seemed to side with the defense. I dont doubt what she said happened but she asked for an apology and he gave her two apologies and she refused any other aide that he offered. The reason this is a tough case is because there are inconsistency in andrea constands account. If prosecutors were able to call sfi 5, 10, 15 of the other women who had made allegations against bill cosby i dont think theres any doubt youd have a convicti conviction. Do you feel with a hung jury that you got resolution . Well no, no. Were very, very upset. Cosby was a cultural icon from his wholesome jello commercials. Mom you know how kids love jello. To his cartoon. Its bill cosby coming at you with music and fun. When i sat with him, he refused to address the allegations directly. I have been in this business 52 years and i will, ive never seen anything like this. Cosbys legal team has issued a number of denial and cosby insists hes the subject of a media fire storm. His career is essentially over. Never going to mention his name again without mentioning these horrible allegations. Its going to be in his owe bit u airies. His long time wife by his side during closing arguments, head up, with a demure smile. She was here to show i will stand by my husband. After the trial his publicist announced cosby would host several speaking engagements, among those up for discussion how to avoid Sexual Assault charges. Mr. Cosby is going to go out and educate american ayoung men how to avoid this. Gloria released a statement saying the best advice he could give ed to not drug and sexually assault women. I think hes better if he shuts up. I think ehrhoff day they dont. I is this every day they dont talk about him is a good day. His legacy tarnished but freedom in tact for now.
