Despite the 59 (IIRC) other accusers, retrial will still proceed as though it's a first offense.
Is your objection specific to this case, or all cases impacted by statutes of limitations ??
BTW, in cases like this and as well as child abuse cases, I have no problem with legislatures re-evaluating existing statutes of limitations. In fact, I remain AMAZED that since the first wave of pedo priest abuse from the 1980s, so many statutes of limitations remain still unchanged.
Hard to dump all this on Cosby when literally thousands of legislators across the nation have FUBAR'd this issue for decades. I might even cast a stink eye at the voters for perpetuating those same legislators careers.
Looks like we have the governance we either deserve or have earned . . .

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
