These witnesses, including supermodel Janice Dickinson, are known as "prior bad acts" witnesses. In court, prosecutors said these witnesses showed Cosby had a common pattern or scheme in his assault of Constand. Montgomery County prosecutor Kevin Steele highlighted the "prior bad acts" testimony immediately after the verdict. "Everybody got to see who he really is when each of those prior bad act witnesses got to testify, he said. "This filing is an important step in ensuring that Mr. Cosby receives a hearing from a fair and impartial court," Cosby's spokesman Andrew Wyatt said in a statement.
