![]() Rita Cosby attended Greenwich High School and then matriculated to the University of South Carolina, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in 1989. She is of Caucasian ancestry and American nationality. Her father’s name is Richard Cosby (Ryszard Kossobudzki), and he was a resistance fighter who immigrated to the United States after WWII her mother’s name is unknown. Clearly, it was not.She grew up in Greenwich, Connecticut, with her brother Alan, where they were raised by their parents. We all saw that wonderful picture of one big happy family. Did they engage in perjury, jury tampering, something like that?ĬOSBY: Now, what about-you covered this case from the beginning, basically, to the end. And so there's really nothing as a legal matter that can be done as a result of these jurors engaging in this sort of conduct, unless you're talking about prosecuting individual jurors for their actions. The problem here is that Michael Jackson was found not guilty and, as a result, the prosecutors can't appeal it. And that's the thing I think people fail to recognize in some cases, is that people-if you really go through each and everything that jurors say behind closed doors, if you go back and you evaluate it, you're going to find that, in many cases, jurors say things, they do things that they're not supposed to do. But you know what? Improper things happen in the jury room all the time. ![]() I mean, that's not the jury rules.ĪBRAMS: Yes. But the.ĬOSBY: And it's also improper, too. If that is true, that's preposterous.ĪBRAMS: Yes. So, how preposterous is it, if you believe these individuals-and, also, Katharina Carls apparently confirms, as she did with us-that the foreman said, look, if you don't agree with me, you're going to get kicked off. It means saying, I'm not going to talk to you about it. That doesn't mean saying, I don't agree with you. That could get someone thrown off the jury, someone who simply refuses to deliberate. So, basically, someone would have to, for example, bring in outside material and say, look, I've been researching this, and I can tell you, for the amount of time we've been deliberating, we've been focusing on the wrong issues because of what I saw on the Internet. It's a very extreme measure to throw someone off a jury. You really have to do something pretty awful to get thrown off a jury. You can't get thrown off for disagreeing. Not one of them fell off the jury during a five-month trial. We had people with advanced degrees, people with very, very good employment. I saw this jury as being extremely attentive, extremely intelligent. You didn't have to be starstruck to look at all this and say, I don't believe these people for a second.ĬOSBY: Did you notice any of the interaction that we heard from Ellie Cook with her and Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine, or any interaction with any other jurors? We put on numerous witnesses who questioned their credibility and their ethics in many other situations. You saw the contradictions on the witness stand, the changed positions they took throughout the trial. ![]() They then went to social workers and said Michael Jackson did nothing. You don't have to listen to an audiotape when the accusers say Michael Jackson did nothing. ![]() It doesn't-you don't have to be starstruck to look at a videotape when the accuser is saying Michael Jackson did nothing. ![]()
