Keshia Knight Pulliam said she came to court to support her TV dad Bill Cosby in the first day of his sexual assault trial because “ultimately, it’s about standing by your truth.”
“I want to be the person that I would like to have if the tables were turned,” Keshia after court ended for the day. “Right now it’s the jury’s job and the jury’s decision to determine guilt or innocence. It’s not mine or anyone else’s.”
She never said whether or not she thinks Bill is innocent.
“I don’t condone sexual assault in any way, shape or form, but, at the end of the day, our court system is set up … you’re innocent until proven guilty,” she said. “The job now is for the two sides to prove their cases and I accept whatever verdict is handed down.”
Okay, Keshia.
Bill Cosby took to Twitter to thank Keshia as well as to fire off a few hashtags.
