Bill Cosby became the subject of dozens of sexual assault accusations dating back to the 1960s. In 2015 he was charged with felony aggravated indecent assault for a 2004 incident involving Andrea Constand. During a 2018 trial, Cosby was found guilty of drugging and sexually assaulting her, and he received a sentence of 3 to 10 years in prison. He was released after his conviction was overturned in 2021.
