Nearly every juror — 10 out of 12 — believed Bill Cosby was guilty of two counts of sex assault, a juror has revealed to ABC News.
The juror, who spoke to the network on condition of anonymity, revealed that 10 jurors agreed he was guilty on two sex assault counts — for digitally penetrating accuser Andrea Constand without her consent, and for giving her drugs without her knowledge in order to prevent her from resisting.
But the weakest charge turned out to be a third sex assault count, which required proof that Constand was unconscious or unaware during the attack. Only one juror believed Cosby was guilty of that count, the report said.
Surprisingly, the jurors began their deliberations with a non-binding poll, just to see where they stood before digging into the case — and they all voted that the comedian was not guilty of all three counts of aggravated indecent assault, the juror said.
But as they deliberated, nearly every juror shifted to the conviction side.
The deadlock became intractable about 30 hours into the 52 hours of deliberations, the juror told the network.
“There was no budging” after the first deadlock, the juror said. “And there was none from there on out.”
On Sunday, The Post revealed that Cosby had boasted during deliberations that “All I need is one” holdout to hang the jury.
