What can we expect from this episode

This week’s 60 Minutes Australia is The Case Against Cosby.

Bill Cosby was much loved not just in America, but right around the world. The comedian’s public persona was unambiguous: as well as being funny, he was a family man through and through, caring and thoughtful. Except, it was a big lie. Cosby was really using the power of his fame for evil.

He was a sexual predator who, over decades it’s claimed, assaulted more than 60 vulnerable women. It seems he believed he could get away with anything he wanted. But a very courageous Canadian, Andrea Constand, changed all that. By exposing his wrongdoing, she well and truly wiped the smile off Bill Cosby’s face.
