PRAYERS UP FOR BILL!

The judge in the Bill Cosby sexual assault trial read parts of the comedian’s decade-old deposition from a civil suit for more than 30 minutes on Tuesday after jurors requested additional “context” as part of their deliberations.They will decide if the comedian sexually assaulted accuser Andrea Constand in 2004.

According to depositions Cosby made in 2005 and 2006, he gave Constand Benadryl and admitted to having two sexual encounters with Constand. His depositions were graphic, describing “necking” “petting” and “make out” sessions he said he engaged in with Constand.That civil suit was eventually settled out of court.

Cosby faces 10 years in prison and a $25,000 fine and would also be required to register as a sex offender if convicted. Cosby did not testify but his past deposition was read aloud in court. Cosby, 79, has always denied giving Constand anything other than Benadryl on the night in question and has said that anything romantic that transpired between them was consensual.

“I wanted her to be comfortable and relaxed and be able to go to sleep after our necking session,” Cosby said in the 2005-2006 deposition.Cosby has denied any wrongdoing in other accusations. The Verdict is coming soon!
