After entering Day 4 of jury deliberations after a trial that lasted six, jurors have indicated they aren't able to agree on a verdict. They've been instructed to keep trying.
And the jury's dinner selection: hot Stromboli (for some reason the judge repeated the jurors' menu choice several times, making sure everyone knew it would be served at the proper temperature).
His "television daughter," Atlanta actress Keshia Knight Pulliam, has been with him in court and explained her support during a Wednesday interview with NBC's "Today Show."
“It’s easy to be there for someone when things are good,” she said. “I wanted to do what I would have wanted to receive.”
She walked with him into court last week and sat through opening arguments.
"It was important for me to be there," said Pulliam, who played Rudy as a child on "The Cosby Show" back in the day. The new mom now lives in Atlanta. "I truly believe you're innocent until proven guilty."
She does not dismiss the serious allegations her television father faces.
“As a woman, as a graduate of Spelman College … and being the mother to a daughter it’s nothing I take lightly or that I condone in any way, shape or form,” she said. “He’s clear that yes, he has been unfaithful to his wife. Ultimately if she chooses to forgive him for those things, that’s between the two of them.”
If the jury returns a guilty verdict, Pulliam said, she’ll be “disappointed” but it won’t change her regard for Cosby.
“People falter,” she said. “People make mistakes. Things happen.”
