‘The Cosby Show’ star is going to jail for a 2004 sexual assault.

After years of allegations from dozens of women, comedian and television icon Bill Cosby has finally been found guilty of sexual assault.

The famed comedian will return to court to face charges of felony indecent assault for a second time.

The decision follows a deadlock amid the twelve jury members.

Bill Cosby, who has been accused multiple times of sexually assaulting women over several decades, was officially charged in relation to a 2004 incident in Pennsylvania. Montgomery County assistant district attorney Kevin R. Steele made the announcement Wednesday morning, saying the charge is first-degree aggravated indecent assault.

Prior to the many pieces, victims and testimony cementing Bill Cosby’s status as a reviled public figure, the comedian had almost reached the cusp of a comeback, planning a new NBC series and a Netflix standup special. Netflix was quick to shelve plans to release the special once Cosby’s deeds became a national focus, and now the streaming service doesn’t ever believe it “appropriate” to air.

Bill Cosby has stayed mum on the allegations he raped several women, but now video has surfaced in which he tackles the subject. And it's what happened after the interview that's making waves.

The ongoing firestorm against Bill Cosby has only swelled in recent weeks, as more and more allegations of rape emerge against the once-revered comedian, so it wasn’t any surprise that Netflix would opt to discard the November 28 release of a new Cosby standup special. Now, NBC has expectedly followed suit by abandoning development plans for a new Cosby sitcom for 2015.
