Bill Cosby a sexually violent predator

[NewCreation435]

This is from USA today
Bill Cosby's three-to-10-year prison sentence and branding by a Pennsylvania judge as a "sexually violent predator" puts a final dagger in a damaged — but undeniably extensive — pop-culture legacy.
The 81-year-old actor broke racial barriers with I Spy in the late 1960s, enticed millions of kids to eat Jell-O pudding starting in the late '70s and reignited the sitcom (and NBC) with The Cosby Show, which ranked as TV's top series for five years in the late 1980s.
Poof. That's all vanished.

I think celebrities attain a certain power that goes to their heads and they think they're invincible. I never would have suspected Cosby to do such a thing. I used to love watching the Fat Albert cartoons.

Totally agree with the red above. So sad.

I think it's sad, too.

The illusion that the Cosby Show created is sad to lose but the reality was not the same comforting story that the illusion told. Seems that the reality was of a sexual abuser who drugged his selected victims.

... I think this can apply to anyone who is placed on a pedestle. They assume they won't be reported (or even seen as bad) and if so, won't be seen as what they ACTUALLY are.

The SAD thing is that such honored persons are often in very trusted positions - clergy, teachers, coaches, "first responders", etc. When society places one on such a pedestal, they need to be PARTICULARLY mindful.
