Bill Cosby Update: Comedian Delivers MLK Day Message From Prison

Bill Cosby is currently behind bars, but that didn't stop him from delivering a message to his social media followers in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday.

A photo of the late activist alongside a quote was shared with the 82-year-old comedian's Instagram followers.

"Martin said, 'Use Me GOD. Show Me How To Take Who I Am, Who I Want To Be, And What I Can Do, And Use It For A Purpose Greater Than Myself.'" the caption read. "The Revolution is not only in the home, but here in this gated community (SCI Phoenix). Thank you, Martin, for your strength, your courage and your purpose."

The caption was followed up with a series of hashtags including #youcanimprisonmybodybutnotmymind, #MLKLIVESFOREVER, #GODUSEMEFORYOURGOOD, #REVOLUTIONSTARTSINTHEHOME, #FARFROMFINISHED, and #FREEBILLCOSBY.

Cosby was convicted on three counts of aggravated indecent assault in April 2018 and is currently serving a three to 10-year sentence at SCI Phoenix Penitentiary located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. He attempted to get his conviction overturned, however, in Dec. 2019, judges unanimously denied the appeal.

"For all the aforementioned reasons, we conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting the (prior bad acts) evidence and, therefore, Appellant’s first claim lacks merit," the ruling concluded.

At the moment, the earliest that Cosby could be released is Sept. 25, 2021.
