It's been a while since I read the SC ruling but it basically boiled down that DA's can't not make an agreement with a defendant then violate the agreement, it's a bad precedent and will prevent further defendants from taking plea deals.

Dude you are moving the goal posts, you said that Diddy was going to get out on appeal the same way Cosby did and they are totally different scenarios.

He wasn't originally charged because the DA didn't have enough evidence.


Castor said he issued such a definitive public statement to help Constand if she decided to pursue civil charges against Cosby.

"Once I decided that there wasn't enough evidence that I thought the case could produce a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt, I had two choices," Castor said. "I could do nothing and hope it got better... or I could set the pieces up so that civil lawyers who knew what they were doing would know how to achieve a victory in civil court that would punish Cosby."

The statement that he would not pursue criminal charges, he said, was designed to prevent Cosby from invoking the Fifth Amendment and refusing to answer questions in civil court.

"I put in writing that he wasn't going to be prosecuted," Castor explained. "As a direct result of that not being prosecuted, [Cosby] loses his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination automatically, so there doesn't have to be any agreement with him. It's simply, you're not going to be prosecuted, now you must sit for a deposition."

At the time, he said, it was his job to try and "achieve a just end," saying he was "happy with that result."



Former district attorney stands by his handling of Bill Cosby's case

"I made the correct decisions at the time and they still hold up today," former prosecutor Bruce Castor said Thursday.

Either Diddy isn't following his advice or he caught him lying to him. I can't imagine any other reason he'd leave the case.

That seems logical to me.

I also thought that maybe one of the lawyer's clients is somehow connected to this case, and there might be a conflict of interest. I'm not a lawyer, so it's just a wild guess.

Getting a shot in the music industry will make your whole day,

Having Diddy take you under his wing will make your hole weak!
