    Cool Bill Cosby drops remainder of federal suit against accuser

    Comedian Bill Cosby on Thursday dropped the remaining counts of a lawsuit he filed against one of the women accusing him of sexual assault, along with several others, claiming they violated the terms of a confidential settlement in another lawsuit.

    The dismissal comes 10 days after U.S. District Judge Eduardo Robreno ruled that Cosby could not sue Andrea Constand, her mother, Gianna Constand, or her attorneys, Dolores Troiani and Bebe Kivitz, for speaking to investigators about her accusations.

    Cosby filed the suit in February, accusing the Constands, the lawyers and American Media Inc., publisher of the National Enquirer, of violating the terms of a 2006 confidential settlement.

    Robreno let stand Cosby's other claims, including that Constand, a former Temple University basketball coach, violated the confidentiality agreement through posts she made on Twitter about the case and in comments to the Toronto Sun newspaper.

    Cosby loses appeal to have sex assault charges thrown out...

    Bill Cosby loses latest bid to have sex assault charges thrown out
    Thursday 13th October, 2016 - Bill Cosby has lost his latest effort to have criminal sex assault charges thrown out on appeal in Pennsylvania.
    Cosby's lawyers argue that accuser Andrea Constand should have testified at a preliminary trial so they could confront his accuser.

    Pennsylvania law allows prosecutors to use hearsay testimony from police at pre-trial hearings, and the state Superior Court on Wednesday denied Cosby's appeal.

    But defence lawyer Brian McMonagle said he hopes to join a related appeal being heard by the state Supreme Court.

    Cosby is set for trial in June in Philadelphia on charges he drugged and molested Ms Constand in 2004. He has pleaded not guilty.

    I know what the guy did was terrible, he was a jackass and worse. But this is awful itself. They let out old attorneys who have committed fraud and defended islamic murderers. Am i being too soft in saying...just let this old man go home to die in his own home.
