Camille Cosby absent from Bill Cosby's hearing

In recent months, Camille Cosby said she had had enough and that she was planning to divorce her. Bill Cosby, the legend of the disgraced comedy, was accused of sexually assaulting a woman and having been sexually assaulted.

Through Bill Cosby's representative, Camille Cosby denied in June that she had left the family home. And last week, the long-time wife announced that she had hired a former prosecutor to investigate whether her husband had been treated fairly by the Pennsylvania judge who was watching her trial and sentencing this week.

That's why the lack of loyalty is probably not the reason why Camille Cosby did not appear in court on Monday at the first two-day hearing to sentence her 54-year-old husband.

Bill Cosby, 81, faces a maximum jail term of 10 years under an agreement between Montgomery County attorneys and the defense attorney.

Maybe Camille Cosby, 74, was sick on Monday. Or maybe she's been disgusted by a process that she sees rigged against her husband.

Or perhaps she did not attend Monday's hearing because she could not listen to the pressure from prosecutors to have her 81-year-old husband classified as "a sexually violent predator," reported the New York Times. Missing the hearing, she also forgot to hear a psychologist claiming that her husband was suffering from a "personality disorder" that manifested as a lifetime sexual interest in non-consenting women.

In any case, Camille Cosby did not accompany her husband to the Montgomery Count hearing, the New York Times and CNN reported.

Cosby was found guilty in the same courthouse in April of charges stemming from the 2004 attack on former Temple University employee Andrea Constand.

"(Camille Cosby) was not with Mr. Cosby when he entered the courthouse at 9:08 am He was wearing a dark suit and was wearing a blue kerchief in his chest pocket," reported the New York Times . Bill Cosby sat quietly in front of the court with his lawyers.

The absence of his wife was remarkable, given his desire to speak on behalf of her husband in recent months. Vanity Fair said the other members of Cosby's family used to defend it publicly, but USA Today said Camille Cosby was rarely heard as allegations against her husband began to draw attention in October. 2014

But that changed in May when Camille Cosby published a long Facebook post, in which she compared her husband to Emmett Till, the lynch mob victim, and other African American men wrongfully accused. She said her husband was a victim of "grassroots justice" by the media and Montgomery County authorities.

"Once again, an innocent person has been convicted of uncontrollable, unconditional and unconstitutional delirium spread by the media and allowed to appear in court," she writes.

Then last Monday, Camille Cosby arrived in the Pennsylvania capital outside of the state's judicial leadership council, USA Today reported. Accompanied by a member of Cosby's legal team, she distributed a statement to reporters accusing Judge Steven O'Neill of bias and hidden motives in presiding over Cosby's two lawsuits; the first trial is ended by a jury without conviction and the second is ended by his conviction.

"My husband has been sued in a lawsuit chaired by an unethical judge who seeks to aggravate his unethical behavior by condemning Bill Cosby," said the American daily Camille Cosby.

The legal defense team of Camille Cosby and her husband claimed that OnNeill had a long-standing and fierce rivalry with one of the main witnesses in the case, former Montgomery County Attorney Bruce Castor. reported Vanity Fair. Cosby's lawyers say this quarrel had an impact on the most recent lawsuit.

A Radar Online report published in June suggested that Camille Cosby's loyalty demonstrations were only for P.R.

In fact, according to Radar Online, Camille Cosby left the Philadelphia suburban mansion, leaving her husband to occupy the house on her own and under house arrest pending her conviction.

Radar Online added that Camille Cosby had been transferred to the couple's Massachusetts home, where she was perhaps preparing to file for divorce.

"He's literally the only one at home," a source told Radar Online, adding that the separated couple were now living separate lives. "They have been fighting and arguing since the verdict. She wanted to divorce, but he begged her to stay.

But a representative of Bill Cosby quickly rejected this report, saying the idea that the couple lives separately and is heading for divorce is "ridiculous".

"The accusations they made in their tabloid are absolutely false," Wyatt told People in June. "Madame and Mr. Cosby are not getting divorced and she is with him at the Philadelphia House right now.

Wyatt, incidentally, accompanied Cosby to her sentencing hearing on Monday, according to reports.

Bill and Camille Cosby married in 1954 and have three daughters alive, Erika, 53, Erinn, 51, and Evin, 41. Their son Ennis died at the age of 27 in January 1997 while their daughter had died at the age of 44 from a kidney disease in February.
