The Supreme Court is leaving in place a decision made by Pennsylvania’s highest court that led to Bill Cosby’s release from prison. The high court declined prosecutors’ request to hear the case and reinstate Cosby’s conviction. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court last year threw out Cosby’s conviction, saying the prosecutor who brought the case was bound by his predecessor’s agreement not to charge Cosby.
