eli5?The 5th amendment gives you a right to not incriminate yourself when facing prosecution. It doesn't apply to civil cases, and Cosby was asked to testify for one with the knowledge that his words couldn't be used against him in criminal court. Then a new DA came in and promptly did just that. https://twitter.com/nataliemj10/status/1410279038510374914 --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

Don't like it? Blame the prosecutor who fucked up. If you oppose the decision, then you inherently support the state being allowed to lie to entrap people into forfeiting their constitutional rights.

The DA broke its promise and impinged on his rights.A poor person likely wouldn't have the means to show this as would just be forgotten about once sent to jail. Obviously it comes down to whoever it was who originally fucked up, but it still remains a rapist is getting out free. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
