Bill Cosby Thanks Snoop Dogg for Supporting Him With a Rare Social Media Post

Bill Cosby is reaching out to Snoop Dogg.

The 82-year-old convicted sex offender wrote a message to Snoop on Thursday (February 6) after Snoop called for his freedom on social media while attacking Gayle King for asking questions about Kobe Bryant‘s rape trial in an interview.

“Snoop - when they brought me to my gated community and placed me inside of my penthouse, they didn’t win nor did they silence me. It’s so sad and disappointing that successful Black Women are being used to tarnish the image and legacy of successful Black Men, even in death. Are these people that in need of fame, ratings and/or money? On behalf of myself, Camille and my family, thank you, thank you and thank you. My heartfelt prayers are with Kobe and his family, as well as with Michael Jackson and his family. May their legacies live on forever,” Bill wrote.
