He repeatedly attacked accuser andrea constands credibility saying she and cosby had a romantic relationship. Thats something Gloria Allred says it absurd. Of course, they would like to minimize his statements about under oath in a civil deposition about his admission that he provides quaaludes or did to young women. Reporter we spoke to an expert brendan campbell. His thoughts on the case and calling just one witness. Putting on testimony is it opens up the door for a potential for the commonwealth to call other witnesses such as other potential victims. Reporter Montgomery County d. A. Kevin steel also gave his closing argument. Again and again, he reminded the jury, cosby knowingly drugged constand at his home. She couldnt move her arms or legs or resist.

Richard jones is charged with aggravated robbery in kansas city just about 20 years ago. He had an alibi. There was no physical evidence ever tying him to the crime. But a witness picked his picture out of a police lineup. But 15 years later, this guy, ricky amos, went to prison also, a nearly identical match. When i saw his picture beside mine, i seen the resemblance that me and him had, i just knew that it was understandable why other people said the same thing. Well, amos has denied any involvement in the crime, but the witness who identified jones admitted that he couldnt tell the two apart making his earlier testimony undependable. A judge ordered that jones immediately be freed. For years, instagram users had the ability to buy likes or followers on any number of websites, but russia has apparently taken that concept a step further.

And if you pay about 1. 70, you can get 100 new followers. Most of these fake users seem to come from brazil, which may be a true sign of the times. Finally, if youre watching big talkers earlier this month, youll likely record one or two of the strange women suits we found trending online. Uhoh. Yeah. They were the onesleeved, longsleeve bikinis and suede and cotton for those who like fashion over function. Of course, the one antopicly correct body swimsuit depicting every organ in the torso. But if you thought science class was bit much, forgive us in advance. Let us introduce you to this. The newest and arguably the most disturbing swimsuit available today, the quote, sectiony chest hair, one piece sexy chest hair one piece beloved shirts.

If you want to redefine your beach body goals this summer, you better hurry, because get this, at last check, that website was selling one of these every 49 seconds. Wow. They are laughing all the way to the bank. They lost me with the back hair. Thats disgusting. Sorry. Dont you just want to shave it . All right. Lets get another check of the roads out there tonight. Matt pellman standing by with the naked truth today. Yes. Speaking of backs, big backups. A little bit of a hairy situation on the northeast extension this afternoon, brian and monica. It remains shut down in the northbound direction between lansdale and quakertown. Accident involving two trucks that happened hours ago now. But theyre still out there cleaning up and investigating the accident. So northbound side of 476 is still closed. Theres a substantial backlog coming north of Plymouth Meeting up to lansdale, exit 91 where everyones forced off. So what this is doing, of course, is putting extra traffic over on 309. Some speeds like 6 Miles Per Hour there. So if youre able, think outside the box a little bit.
