Cosby Sentence

Cosby Sentence
Should he do jail time (prosecution position) or should he be allowed house arrest (defense position)?

Judge weighs Cosby’s sentence after declaring him ‘predator’: https://www.apnews.com/a89d65175e8443f2945137bf07ba6510

" NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) — A judge declared Bill Cosby a “sexually violent predator” on Tuesday as he prepared to sentence the 81-year-old comedian for drugging and sexually assaulting a woman over a decade ago. The classification means that Cosby must undergo monthly counseling for the rest of his life and report quarterly to authorities. His name will appear on a sex-offender registry sent to neighbors, schools and victims. Montgomery County Judge Steven O’Neill made the decision as he weighed the punishment for Cosby for violating Temple University women’s basketball administrator Andrea Constand at his suburban Philadelphia estate in 2004.

I think some time in minimum security is warranted.

Jail...his money and influence kept him on the streets after doing what he did far too long. His age shouldn't be a 'get out of jail free' card.

Jail. Let him do time and see if those sagging pants jokes do him any favors on the inside.

Some PA state facility. I haven’t heard which one.

Let him die in prison, so he can spend the rest of his life blind in a cell thinking about what a scumbag he is.

He's literally one of the worst serial rapists in American history. House arrest would be a travesty.

RE: Cosby Sentence
Jail, with his vulnerability taken into account.

There a couple of things that come to mind for discussion:

1) How does someone live their whole life knowing they've done something like this? Is he sorry, I wonder? Does he consider he did anything wrong?

2) It is interesting to consider how by jailing someone for what they did so long ago, that we're punishing essentially a different person. That's always the case, to some degree; but over large periods of time it becomes more substantial. This isn't some sort of excuse to not punish him, I just find it a weird idea. It's an unavoidable consequence of how things are.
