That doesn't attach in a mistrial, unless the judge decrees it.

The comment was in response to a comment about trying again after an acquittal, not a hung jury.

Hung Jury: Bill Cosby Sexual Assault Trial Ends in Mistrial

by Hannah Rappleye and Tracy Connor

NORRISTOWN, Pa. — Bill Cosby's sexual assault trial ended Saturday with a jury that was deadlocked on all counts, punctuating an epic scandal with a giant question mark.

After more than 50 hours of deliberation over six days, the jury of seven men and five women was unable to reach a verdict, and Montgomery County Judge Steven O'Neill declared a mistrial.

"Do not in any way feel you have let the justice system down," O'Neill told the jury...

Waiting with great interest to hear the jury breakdown. I'm surprised the DA has announced the case will be retried without knowing that info.

I had a hair appointment this afternoon. As my hairstylist trimmed my hair we discussed the Cosby trial. She stated she believed that Constand and Cosby were having an affair. She said the 53 phone calls after the alleged assault is what led her to that conclusion.

I told her I believed the victim. I felt like pulling my hair out at this point lol. :pullhair:

I am wondering if others on the jury are having difficulty with the fact that Constand called Cosby 53 times and thinking along the same lines as my hairstylist. Is that reasonable doubt?

I would want to learn a lot more about that. For instance do we know how many days those 53 calls spanned? Someone calling somebody 53 times in a short time frame seems excessive.

And I could see either side of the case using that information to prove their argument.

The above is just my opinion.

Ugh. I would be looking for a new hairdresser.

It's not reasonable doubt for me. For one thing, do we know what the conversations consisted of? I don't think they were recorded. For all we know, Cosby could have been blackmailing her or threatening her.

Or vice versa.

The above is just my opinion.
 
Does anyone know if the retrial will have the same judge?

Maybe if more of the other women are allowed to testify they can get a conviction...moo.

And would they use the same jury pool? In other words would they make the case for it being moved to another location?

Judge to Cosby: This is a nullity...This is not victory...You remain on bail for 3 charges of indecent assault #CosbyTrial
 
I'm not surprised at this outcome after the jury deliberations lasted so long but I'm glad he is being retried.

We will have a toast when he is retried, found guilty, and goes to prison. Moo.
Imo there is much public desensitization to and acceptance for his alleged crimes due to his celebrity status, just like OJ...thumbs down!! Wake up people! (Not you guys...)

Thanks everyone for the updates.

Me too. This is not the worst that could happen imo. (Also I am glad he has to go through it all again, the b*****d) though my thoughts are with the accusers, I wish them the strength to continue to get justice.
