Bill Cosby lashes out at prosecutor in expletive-laden tirade in courtroom after conviction

NORRISTOWN, Pa. (WTXF/AP) - Bill Cosby lashed out at the prosecutor in an expletive-laden tirade in the courtroom after his conviction Tuesday in his sexual assault retrial.

After the verdict, FOX 29's Bruce Gordon reports there was a discussion about bail which was set at $1 Million. When Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele was asked why Cosby was considered a flight risk, the DA responded by saying "Because he owns a plane."

At that time, Gordon reports Cosby said aloud in the courtroom, "He doesn't have a plane you (expletive)."

District Attorney Kevin Steele told reporters Thursday the outburst showed that Cosby's good-guy persona was just an act, and "we got to see who he really was."
