Model Janice Dickinson also attended the hearing as one of the five who testified in court and one of the 35 victims who spoke to New York magazine in 2015. Andrea, Janice and and 20 more of Bill's accusers were also in attendance to take him down.
Andrew Wyatt, a spokesperson for Bill, said a statement after he was brought into custody. "Mr. Cosby is doing great. And Mr. Cosby knows that God is watching over him. He knows that these are lies. They persecuted Jesus and looked what happened. Not saying Mr. Cosby is Jesus. But we know what this country has done to black men for centuries. So Mr. Cosby is doing fine. He is holding up well. And everybody who wants to say anything negative, you're a joke as well."
