Bill Cosby Is Afraid To Leave Home Because Someone Will 'Kill Him For Fame,' Rep Says
Bill Cosby's representative, Andrew Wyatt, reportedly revealed how his client and his 79-year-old spouse "don't like being prisoners in their own home" and are afraid to go outside because of what someone may try to do.
Their limited public interaction is reportedly due to Cosby's harboring fear that a family member of one of his accusers might pose a threat to their lives, according to RadarOnline. Wyatt himself also has experienced harassment representing Cosby.
Wyatt detailed disturbing encounters with relatives of the comedian's alleged victims, recounting instances of verbal abuse, physical threats, and overall hostility directed towards him. According to Wyatt, these confrontations occurred on multiple occasions.
In one account, Wyatt revealed that during Cosby's 2018 trial, a husband of one of the accusers allegedly "threatened" him with a knife with a weapon in hand. He disclosed that the situation escalated to the point where eight sheriff's deputies "detained" the husband. No police report was filed.

At 86 years old, Cosby is reported to be in "pretty good health," according to a statement from the aging comedian's representative to RadarOnline. The representative emphasized that Cosby's current condition is significantly improved compared to when he was released from prison in June 2021.
'The Cosby Show' patriarch faced significant health challenges, having undergone two "life-sustaining" surgeries in 2019 to address blockages in both his left and right carotid arteries. Additionally, his time in prison was marked by concerns over high blood pressure.
