Court Rejects Bill Cosby's Appeal To Overturn His Conviction

A Pennsylvania court is rejecting Bill Cosby's appeal to overturn his sexual assault conviction. The comedian had claimed that additional accusers should not have been allowed to testify during his trial because they were "strikingly dissimilar" to the main accuser. The original judge said in post-trial testimony the additional woman showed "chilling similarities." The appeals court agreed with the judge because all of the cases showed distinctive similarities. Cosby is serving a three-to-ten year sentence in a state prison near Philadelphia.
