Bill Cosby vs. Beverly Johnson, Ethan Couch Manhunt + Oscar Pistorius Testimony
The Bill Cosby blame games continues as Cosby files another defamation lawsuit against supermodel Beverly Johnson, claiming she lied about her rape accusations. A Texas grand jury has decided not to indict anyone relating to the death of Sandra Bland, but what is to be said about the excessive police force captured in the dash cam footage prior to Bland’s arrest and death while in police custody? We also look at the manhunt for “affluenza” teen Ethan Couch and the repercussions he faces by breaking probation. Lastly, is there a difference between the way we view male and female murderers? Criminal Minds writer/producer & retired FBI SSA Jim Clemente breaks down gender hatred, as well as the mental abilities of “vulnerable narcissist” Oscar Pistorius in this Crime Time episode, hosted by Allison Hope Weiner.
