Many on Twitter condemned Bill Cosbyâs release from prison on Wednesday as a setback for the #MeToo movement. But his staunchest supporters, including actress Phylicia Rashad, celebrated his freedom.
âFINALLY!!!!â Ms. Rashad, who appeared as Mr. Cosbyâs wife in âThe Cosby Show,â wrote on Twitter. âA terrible wrong is being righted- a miscarriage of justice is corrected!â
Mr. Cosby, whose 2018 sexual assault case was seen as the first major criminal conviction of the #MeToo era, was freed from prison on Wednesday after a Pennsylvania appeals court overturned his conviction.
The court ruled that a ânon-prosecution agreementâ should have prevented him from ever being charged with three counts of aggravated indecent assault against Andrea Constand, to whom Mr. Cosby had been a mentor.
