One of the jurors in Bill Cosby’s retrial is speaking out about the verdict — and why Cosby’s own words sealed his fate.<\/b>
\nHarrison Snyder, one of the jurers in the Bill Cosby case, said it was the comedian\u2019s own words that led to his guilty verdict.
\u201cI think it was his deposition, really,\u201d Snyder told ABC\u2019s \u201cGood Morning America\u201d on Monday, about what led to his vote. \u201cCosby admitted to giving these quaaludes to women, young women, in order to have sex with them.\u201d
On April 26, Cosby was found guilty in his retrial over accusations made by former Temple University employee Andrea Constand. The judge allowed Cosby to be released on bail, which was in the amount of $1 million. A sentencing date has not yet been set.
The 22-year-old Snyder admitted that he hadn\u2019t paid much attention at all to the accusations against the \u201cCosby Show\u201d star. \u201cI didn\u2019t know anything, I don\u2019t watch the news ever. I didn\u2019t know what he was on trial for.\u201d
During the retrial, jurors heard testimony from Constand as well as five other Cosby accusers, though Snyder said he believed Constand enough that even if she were the only one to testify, he would have still thought Cosby was guilty.
\u201cHe stated that he gave these drugs to other women,\u201d Snyder continued. \u201cI don\u2019t think it really necessarily mattered that these other five women were here because he said it himself that these drugs were for other women.\u201d
Snyder concluded that he shares no misgivings about his decision. \u201cI have no doubts at all.\u201d
Snyder added that he\u2019s heard from both those that agreed he was guilty and those that still think Cosby is innocent. \u201cI just tell them, if you were there you would say the same thing, say that he\u2019s guilty.\u201d<\/p>\n
