Bill Cosby Loses His Sight, Now A Blind Old Man Confined To His Home
Bill Cosby has gone blind and is now confined at home.
“His
alleged victims may take some solace in the fact that he’s in his own
personal hell. He has been suffering from a degenerative eye disease and
is completely blind. All his Hollywood friends have turned their backs
on him,” a source tells Page Six. “He is confined to his
house in Pennsylvania, and the only person on his side is his wife,
Camille, who is masterminding his defense.”
The source added, “his only friends are the small army of lawyers on his payroll.”
Cosby
who turned 79 on July 12 reportedly has a degenerative eye condition
called keratoconus, a condition that causes the eye’s cornea to bulge.
He is presently confined to a home in Pennsylvania with his wife,
Camille. Disgraced star accused of sexually assaulting fifty womenThe
disgraced star will stand trial on sexual assault charges at a date yet
to be determined as a judge has ruled he is facing three counts of
felony aggravated indecent assault from a 2004 case involving Andrea
Constand, an employee at his alma mater, Temple University.
Constand
who claimed Cosby had drugged and raped her in 2004 was the first of
more than 50 women to come forward with sexual allegations on the TV
icon.
Monique
Pressley, one of Bill Cosby’s team of lawyers, said in January that his
blindness was the reason Cosby had a strange appearance both in his
mugshot and why he’s usually led on both arms when making court
appearances. Bill Cosby used to be every black child’s favorite dadPresley said, “He’s
a 78-year-old blind man who they’ve chosen to charge. That’s not a
defense to a charge, that’s just a fact.” It explains why he is led into
court by lawyers and reps on both of his arms.”
(He turned 79 on July 12.)
Meanwhile,
a judge ruled, Monday, (July, 18) in Cosby’s civil case that he will
be allowed to sue Andrea Constand as she breached a confidentiality
agreement she signed with him after he settled with her out of court in
2006.
Such a shame. And it was all just for sex. Sex cost him his career, his name, his family, his legacy and ruined his life.
I feel really bad for this guy, he was a great actor and appeared to be a really great man too. People make mistakes though and we should all be ready to face certain consequences as regards our actions. I go dey pray for am personally, remember say na only God suppose judge last last...
