Supreme Court leaves Bill Cosby's overturned conviction in place

The Supreme Court declined to revive Bill Cosby's sexual assault case. The court is leaving in place a decision made by Pennsylvania's highest court that led to Cosby's release from prison.

The Supreme Court did not give any explanation for the decision not to hear the case. Cosby's case was included in a long list of cases the Supreme Court would not hear released Monday.

The 84-year-old Cosby became the first celebrity convicted of sexual assault in the #MeToo era when a jury in 2018 found him guilty of drugging and molesting Temple University employee Andrea Constand in 2004. A jury had previously deadlocked in Cosby's case, resulting in a mistrial in 2017.
