Bill Cosby, a famous icon, has been recently convicted of rape. Cosby has been sentenced to 30 years in prison, being charged with only three counts of aggravated indecent assault (O’Brien). There were over 60 victims that came out about their assault, yet he was only charged with three counts. I think this shows how much influence Hollywood actors, especially men, have in our society. However, justice is justice, no matter how big or small. The article I read included reactions from the victims following the verdict. They were emotional and embraced one another after leaving the court room. This not only shows how resilient women truly are, but it also showed that women are finally being heard.
