Bill Cosby is set to be sentenced this week for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand.

It’s so hard watching a childhood icon fall. I used to know Bill Cosby’s standup routines word-for-word. I used to be his biggest fan.

These sexual assault allegations against him chill me to the bone.

Cosby was found guilty in April on three-counts for raping a former Temple University athletics staffer at his home in 2004.

How do you expect Cosby’s sentencing phase to play out?  Some experts say defense lawyers are likely to argue for house arrest, given the actor’s age. How likely are they to get that?

Jay Mcfarland hosts the JayMac News Show as well as the fictional podcast, Hosts of Eden. KSL Newsradio is part of Bonneville Media and based in Salt Lake City, Utah.
