Bill Cosby said Sunday he expects to serve his full 10-year maximum sentence as he plans to show no remorse for his sexual assault conviction.
Cosby, who was handed down a three- to 10-year sentence last year after being convicted, told BlackPressUSA over the phone that the Pennsylvania parole board will not “hear me say that I have remorse,” and it will likely prevent him from being released early.
“I don’t care what group of people come along and talk about this when they weren’t there. They don’t know,” he said.
“It’s all a setup. That whole jury thing. They were imposters,” he added, claiming one of the jurors was overheard saying before the trial, “He’s guilty, we can all go home now.”
Cosby — a comedian best-known for his 1980s sitcom “The Cosby Show” — was convicted of sexually assaulting a Temple University employee in 2004.
More than 60 women have accused him of other sex crimes, but the statute of limitations had run out in nearly all of their cases.
He’s currently attempting to appeal his conviction and sex offender status while living in a state prison near Philadelphia.
