Bill Cosby Free On $1 Million Bail (Video)
78 Year Old Actor, Comedian ‘Disoriented’ As He Walks With Cane Into Courthouse
Bill Cosby at 2:30 PM Wednesday drove up to the Montgomery County, Pennsylvania Courthouse in a black SUV. He was helped out of the car and walked with a cane a few feet to the building’s side door. Cosby slightly tripped on his way in, and one reporter stated he appeared disoriented and she might have heard him asking his attorney where he was. Another called him “dazed and confused.”
