After the sentence, Andrew Wyatt, Cosby’s spokesperson unleashed on the judge, prosecutors and the media, calling the prosecution “the most racist and sexist trial in the history of the United States.”. He also said that “Mr. Cosby was doing well because he knows that these are lies. They persecuted Jesus and look what happened. (I’m) not saying Mr. Cosby’s Jesus, but we know what this country has done to black men for centuries.”

Constand’s rights attorney Gloria Allred, who represents several women who say they were assaulted by Cosby, praised the sentence as a long journey to justice.

“We’re glad that judgment day has finally come for Mr. Cosby… Mr Cosby has shown no remorse and there has been no justice for many of the accusers who were barred from a court by the arbitrary time limits imposed by the statute of limitations” Gloria Allred Said
