Embattled comedian Bill Cosby walked out of a Pennsylvania prison on Wednesday (June 30) after serving over two years for a sexual assault conviction.
According to the Associated Press, Pennsylvania’s highest court overturned the conviction after finding an agreement with a previous prosecutor prevented him from being charged in the case.
Cosby had vowed to serve all 10 years rather than acknowledge any remorse over an alleged encounter with accuser Andrea Constand, who says the 83-year-old drugged and molested her at his suburban estate in 2004.
As social media erupted with reactions, Timbaland quickly felt the heat after he shared an Instagram post seemingly joking about Cosby’s impending release with an old Jello Pudding Pops ad featuring the former Cosby Show actor.
“Who wants a a jello pudding pop,” he wrote in the caption. “I’m home now.”
Twitter soon lit up with reactions to Timbaland’s post, with many accusing the legendary producer of having a similar predatory vibe.
As one person wrote, “Timbaland supporting Bill Cosby is not surprising cause he had an odd obsession with Aaliyah that veered into predatory behavior. He’s one of them.” Another added, “Timbaland post some creepy shit like that but a few months later it’s ‘RIP baby girl’ like a predator wasn’t also at the center of her life,” referring to the currently incarcerated R. Kelly.
But Timbaland wasn’t the only one seemingly celebrating Cosby’s newfound freedom. Big Freedia, Lil Duval, Ice-T and T.I. also commented on the new development, angering some people in the process.

2021 marked the first year Cosby was eligible for parole under the three- to 10-year sentence handed down after his 2018 conviction. Cosby spokesperson Andrew Wyatt called the parole board decision “appalling.”
Prosecutors said Cosby repeatedly used his fame and “family man” persona to manipulate young women, holding himself out as a mentor before taking advantage of him.

I’m so glad Cosby is out if u mad eat a dick
Preach!
Preach!
By the way TwoConsinshualAddultsWhoDecideToDoDruhgzAndHaveSehxIsntTheSameAsSum1DruhhgingAndRhuapingYouTheCosbyIzFree
Since when did screenshotting 5 random nobodies on twitter become journalis?
Facts.
Dude got locked up based on 0 evidence and everyone getting wrapped up in “believing the victim”… maybe he did it, maybe he didnt, but there was no legal reason to lock him up. If he is a predator he can go to hell, but let’s get back to proving shit before convicting people. It’s getting ridiculous.
Well kids, it was overturned because he shouldn’t have been prosecuted in the first place. There is a big bag full of dicks and jello pops for all those who feel some kind of way.
Can’t cancel what you don’t subscribe to haha fuck all these twitter jury
Can’t have an opinion in this b•tch or something. FOH
Welcome home Bill ! Fuck the feminists and social media !
Great news! Always keep in mind, Two Consinshual Addults Who Decide To Do Druhgz And Have Sehx Isnt The Same As Sum1 Druhhging And Rhuaping You. Especially if there’s 0 evidence and they were caught lying numerous times on numerous occasions and they keep going back. TheCosbyIzFree!
Wasn’t consensual. He admitted to doing it
Right!!!-
If you actually see the post you would see alot of positive reactions and agreement instead of “cancelled”
dumb white liberals tryna keep da black man down
You a Trumptard clown ninja
ooh yee milinials of little brain and faith… Some of YOU need to be canceled. Not knowing yur eyeball from your asses… the American justice system is all kinds of garbage… cancel that instead of talking about canceling people that may be what you think but your not sure of.
Millenials need to cancel themselves.
He admitted to doing it though
let’s goooooo! we know there’s a small percentage that hates Bill no worries
He admitted to doing it tho
No he did not. Stop lying.
People are so funny and quick to judge others. What if it was YOU what if everyone downed YOU how would YOU feel. Cosby is free now and GOD is the only judge. Don’t be so quick to pass judgement on others. It’s funny how we down talk each other but never uplift.
He admitted to doing it tho
Kind of true. Have you ever had a prosecutor play with your LIFE. It’s real simple you either talk/tell or sit for a long time. Bill is 83 yrs old kinda hard to sit for 10 more yrs
black folks gotta chill with the bad guy shit man
How about these losers on Twitter just “cancel” all straight men and be done with it.
Cosby’s deposition should never have been used as evidence. The system fucked him. He’s done his time. Now, let that man go.
In your 3rd world, maybe. Real countries don’t allow civic suits to override criminal law. But hey, America is just there to extract wealth from their lower-classes beyond anything else. Let’s hope no one signs a civic suit where the State agrees an enforceable clause is: “your [see: yo’ dumb ass] ass is grass”. Because, well, the current precedent is your ass is, indeed, grass and not – you know – an illegal contract like a normal country.
