Bill Cosby will face “execution” if exposed to coronavirus in prison, his representative has claimed.
The facility currently holding Cosby has, as of 17 April, confirmed that 22 inmates and 13 staff have contracted coronavirus, while one inmate has died from the illness.
He will not, however, be released early or granted confinement at home despite the coronavirus pandemic.
On 10 April, Pennsylvania governor Tom Wolf authorised a temporary reprieve for vulnerable and non-violent prisoners at or close to the end of their sentences.
