There are some people in Hollywood who have a lot of power and seem to be able to do whatever they want. They can break the law and manipulate the system however they please. For the average individual, this type of behavior would mean jail time, but not for these celebrities. They are apparently above the law. We have tracked down 7 celebrities who seem to have gotten away with some pretty heinous crimes, like rape and murder. Most people would have been put away for years, but not these celebrities. They are rich, famous and able to get away with anything they want.
7. Bill Cosby
Bill Cosby has a surprising amount of power in Hollywood. For decades, he reportedly drugged and sexually assaulted women and then silenced them with threats and lawyers. None of the cases ever went to criminal court; however, some were settled in civil court. No one even thought about any of this until a comedian, Hannibal Buress, brought the allegations up in one of his stand up routines.
Since then, more and more victims have come forward, but Cosby doesn’t care – he isn’t going anywhere. “Dear Fans: For 53 years you have given me your love, support, respect and trust. Thank you! I can’t wait to see your smiling faces and warm your hearts with a wonderful gift – LAUGHTER. I’m ready!” he wrote in a recent statement. “I thank you, the theatre staff, the event organizers and the Lafayette Community for your continued support and coming to experience family, fun entertainment,” Cosby continued. “Hey, Hey, Hey – I’m far from finished.” Sadly, he’s probably right. He has enough support out there that all the rape allegations in the world can’t bring him down.
