Cosby vows no remorse, expects to serve 10-year maximum

Bill Cosby, 81, is serving three to 10 years behind bars for sexually assaulting Andrea Constand.

Bill Cosby says he's prepared to serve his 10-year maximum sentence for sexual assault rather than show remorse for a crime the comedian says he didn't commit.

Cosby is serving three to 10 years in a state prison near Philadelphia after a jury last year convicted him of sexually assaulting a Temple University employee in 2004. The 82-year-old says the Pennsylvania parole board is "not going to hear me say that I have remorse." He thinks it's therefore unlikely he'll be released early.

He made the comments in a phone interview Sunday with BlackPressUSA as he appeals his felony conviction and sex offender status.
