BILL COSBY: Thinks R. Kelly Got a Raw Deal

At least one person is on R. Kelly‘s side — Bill Cosby.

The recently released comedian reportedly believes the singer got a bad deal when he was found guilty in his federal sex crimes case this week.

Cosby’s spokesman, Andrew Wyatt, was asked what his client’s reaction was to Kelly’s conviction on all nine counts. He told TMZ that Cosby said, “The guy was railroaded.” And he blames legal eagle Gloria Allred and systemic racism.

Allred represented alleged victims in both Cosby and Kelly’s cases.

Kelly is facing 10 years to life when he gets sentenced in May.
