It has been five months since Bill Cosby was sentenced to three to ten years for drugging and raping Andrea Constand in 2004 and now he is finally speaking out on his sentencing.

According to CNN, the TV icon once labeled "America's Dad" Cosby has released a statement through his spokesperson Andrew Wyatt saying he has no remorse for his sexual assault convictions and called himself a "political prisoner."

The statement read,

Here’s why I have no remorse and will never have remorse. I was given a deal; I settled out of court for $3.8 million dollars; I waived my 5th amendment rights; I was declared Not Guilty in 2005 by the Commonwealth – never charged. However, a low-life District Attorney and a corrupt Judge needed me Guilty now. Not for justice, but for their political aspirations. They say, ‘Mr. Cosby, you must attend these classes.’ Why? One word. Entrapment!

Cosby continued that his political beliefs and actions trying to humanize all races, genders and religions landed him in a place surrounded by barb wire fencing, a room made of steel and iron.

He also added he shares a temporary residence with the greatest political prisoners like Martin Luther King Jr, Mahatma Ghandi, and Nelson Mandela just to name a few.

Do you agree with Bill Cosby or is he taking this a little too far?
