People around the country are still outraged, as many believe he received nothing more than a “slap on the wrist” for his misdoings. Many also point to the fact that dozens of women have accused Cosby of drugging them, yet only one woman managed to avoid having the charges dismissed.

One fan of the award-winning actor puts it plainly. “He’s living proof that a human body can keep on moving long after the brain has been destroyed,” he states. In 1988, Busey was severely injured in a motorcycle accident.

While O.J. Simpson eventually served time behind bars later in his life for stealing sports memorabilia, he was released from jail and is reasonably active on social media. Nevertheless, many still argue that he hasn’t paid his debt to society.

Despite having millions of fans, there is an outspoken minority who can’t believe Manson hasn’t been put behind bars for the rest of his life. “I made the mistake of reading his autobiography years ago,” one person confesses.

“It’s almost 300 pages of him boasting about terrible things he’s done in an ‘I’m such a weird artistic genius’ fashion.”
