Montco D.A.: 'Insufficient credible and admissible evidence'

I'm glad to see that "justice was served."
As I have stated in a previous posting, I don't traffic in conspiracy theories, but I believe this was all a poorly-thought out attempt to silence Bill Cosby's criticisms of black America.

In yesterday's Daily News (a/k/a The Fishwrapper), Michael Smerconish had an editorial piece on all of this foolishness. He likened the Cosby ordeal with the Kobe Bryant incident.
I tend to disagree. In Kobe's case, the question wasn't "did it happen?" The question was "Yes, but was it consensual?" In Cosby's case, a woman suddenly remembered that he (Cosby) drugged and fondled her. This epiphany came a year later and, in all that time, she was still making contact with Cosby!
Puh-leeze! Somebody who wanted Cosby to stop contradicting the "official" blame-game policies of the NAACP went on a fishing expedition and found this woman, twisted her story, and went public with it to the MSM.
As stated before, in a country where style trumps substance, the MSM jumped on this like chum draws a shark to a fisherman.
Addendum for February 19, 2005:
The 'victim' is now going to file suit against Cosby. This is now a no-win situation for him because:
"Much exists in this investigation that could be used (by others) to portray persons on both sides of the issue in a less-than-flattering light," he said.
Either way, the NAACP wins on this one!

Addendum for February 19, 2005:
The 'victim' is now going to file suit against Cosby. This is now a no-win situation for him because:
- A) If his insurance gets him to settle out of court, the stigma of guilt will hang over his head for quite awhile
- B) If he chooses to fight this, he'll be tied up in court for a long time. His legal handlers will advise against him making public appearances, thereby silencing his criticism of black America.
