They knew he was screwed. They are laying the grounds for an appeal based on an inadequate defense.

frick you
some of the ads now have gotten beyond intrusive. I also hate the passive aggressive tone when I click "no" they add "No, I don't like saving money" No dick I just don't want to be on your mailer.
and frick any site that auto plays videos. I clicked to read a fricking article, not some dipshit talking about the article....or often something completely unrelated....I'm looking at you ESPN.

Is there an award for dumbest post of the year? Do you really think an attorney would participate in getting that ruling against himself?

That's because the defense has spent five days destroying the prosecution's witnesses, and has nothing left to say.
... ot at least Bill better hope so.

That would a pretty terrible defense strategy and one I can't imagine a lot of defense attorneys engaging in regularly due to malpractice suits.
My guess is that they are simply going on the oldest strategy in the book: the DA has to prove their case (it is their burden), and they believe they have not. Putting on more testimony will only be a net negative.

NORRISTOWN, Pa. — A lawyer for Bill Cosby all but threw in the towel Monday as he delivered lengthy, rambling closing arguments in the comedian’s sex assault trial.
“I pray to God you’ll do your job better than I did mine,” Brian McMonagle thundered to the panel of seven men and five women.
“If during the course of this trial I have said or done anything that might have offended one of you, hold it against me, not him. Me — not him. I wear my emotions on my sleeve and that’s not good for a lawyer.”
During the two-hour summations, which followed just one brief witness before the defense rested without Cosby testifying, McMonagle, often in a loud, shrill voice, reminded jurors that Cosby wasn’t prosecuted back in 2005 — when victim Andrea Constand first reported the assault to police — because the case was too weak.
“This is their evidence, that they gave you,” he said. “This is why this case went into a trash can because Mr. Cosby told them everything they needed to know. ‘We laid down, we did what we normally do, I went to bed. I got up, she was up. I made her a muffin.’”
WTF?
