Bill Cosby Reveals That He Is Legally Blind.

#1

In a recent interview, the disgraced comedian explained the sad circumstances of his current life. He says that one morning he woke up and was unable to see. He informed his wife of the situation and they went to see a doctor. Cosby says that every doctor he has seen has told him that his vision loss is permanent.

During the interview, Cosby also chose not to address the sexual assault allegations that he is currently awaiting trial for. He did mention that he is looking forward to attempting to resurrect his career.

"I miss it all and I hope that day will come. I have some routines and storytelling that I am working on. I think about walking out on stage somewhere in the United States of America and sitting down in a chair and giving the performance that will be the beginning of the next chapter of my career," said Cosby.

His daughter Evin Cosby, however, did comment on the sexual assault allegations her father is accused of. In a recent statement, she defends her dad as a "hard worker" and an amazing family man that "loves and respects women" and who is the victim of extortion and lies. "I am pleased that finally we are seeing the whole picture and seeing cases and claims dismissed from court. I just hope that those who pre-judged my dad are now willing to admit that they were wrong," she said.

One would think she was presumably talking about the three defamation cases against her dad that have been "withdrawn or dismissed recently," according to the USA Today.

Gloria Allred, who is the lawyer for several of the women attacking Cosby, talked to NBC News about Cosby and his family and how they have chosen now to break their silence. "I expect Mr. Cosby and members of his family to continue to speak out in an attempt to portray him as a victim rather than as an alleged sexual predator. However, the jury must decide this case based on the evidence admitted in the court room instead of what they see or hear as part of a slick Hollywood public relations campaign," said Allred.

The living comedy legend has been accused by over 60 women of sexual assault in recent years. However he currently only awaits trial for "three felony charges of second-degree aggravated indecent assault against Andrea Constand," according to news outlets. The trial will begin June 5, 2017, and it is expected to wrap up two weeks after.
