Conviction overturned. Those words cut through social media last week after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court freed Bill Cosby from prison. He was there on a 2018 conviction for indecent assault, a significant victory for the Me Too movement.
Today, we check in with Nicki Weisensee Egan, host of the L.A. Times podcast “Chasing Cosby.” After Cosby’s release, she spoke with several women who have accused him of sexual assault. We also talk to John Manly, a lawyer who has long gone after sexual predators and the institutions that protect them.

Guests: “Chasing Cosby” author and podcast host Nicki Weisensee Egan, and attorney John Manly
