PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bill Cosby is performing in his hometown as a spring retrial looms in his criminal sexual assault case.
The 80-year-old entertainer took the stage Monday night at a Philadelphia jazz club in his first public performance since May 2015. He's telling stories and honoring old friends.
Cosby's last comedy tour ended amid protests as about 60 women were coming forward to accuse him of drugging and molesting them over five decades, something he has denied.
