Bill Cosby purportedly knew he would get a hung jury
All through his trial, Bill Cosby was sure that he would get a hung jury.
All things considered, the indictment expected to persuade every one of the 12 legal hearers, yet his side just needs to influence a solitary holdout, Cosby would wryly note.
"All I need is one," the comic reminded people around him amid breaks in the procedures — two weeks of declaration and consultations in a standout amongst the most prominent sex-attack cases in years. What's more, as thoughts delayed, extending in the long run into their 50th hour, those chances turned into a mantra.
"I just need one, man," he'd say.
Toward the begin of each break, court agents and Cosby's safeguard group would escort the 79-year-old comic far from the court and the processing press, through the corridors of Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas in Norristown, Pa.

The appointees would take him to a little, third-floor meeting room.
At that point, as two appointees stood watch outside, Cosby would spend the break foreseeing if not an out and out exoneration, no less than a malfeasance.
"Steele needs me gravely; he kept running on getting me," Cosby said at one purpose of the prosecutor, Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele.
"Be that as it may, he doesn't have a case."
That is the reason, Cosby claims he turned down the DA's offer of a no-imprison bargain that would have implied he wear a checking arm ornament and enlist as a sex guilty party.
The indictment denies the offer was ever on the table.
"They offered me an arrangement," Cosby said amid one break. "They need me to wear this arm ornament around my lower leg," he said. "They need me to state I'm a sex guilty party."
The entertainer declined the offer since he guaranteed that he's pure and referenced Nelson Mandela.
"However, most critical, me and [wife] Camille went to South Africa to visit Nelson Mandela," Cosby stated, alluding to the counter politically-sanctioned racial segregation progressive who put in 27 years in jail, turned out to be South Africa's leader and passed away in 2013.
"Mandela was free, yet we met him at Robben Island where he was held detainee those years," Cosby said.
"I sat in that cell where he experienced every one of those years. I saw those conditions. I heard what he ate and what he needed to manage.
"Along these lines, on the off chance that they send me to that place, at that point that is the thing that they will do and I should go there."
Cosby would likewise discuss performing once more
"I can hardly wait to get pull out there, in light of the fact that I have a considerable measure to state. There's still such a great amount to be said," he'd say, "It's in the bones. In the blood."
