And the saga continues.
Sherri Shepherd just broke her silence on the Bill Cosby rape and sexual assault scandal with a pretty long Twitter rant.
Seriously, it’s like, a dozen tweets long!

And while the former The View panelist doesn’t come straight out and condemn Bill, she does imply a lot about his innocence.
There’s a lot to the rant, so we think it’d be easier to just let Sherri share her thoughts with you:
It’s so incredibly difficult for a woman to come forward to say she was raped, especially if it’s a powerhouse. Such courage they have shown

Now that @BeverlyJohnson1 has come forward and said Bill Cosby drugged her… will people NOW believe these other women?

My heart breaks …every Saturday ‘Fat Albert’ … endlessly studied Bill Cosby’s comedy … but knowing these women had 2 endure in silence
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 11, 2014
Yes there should be an investigation, but Mr. Cosby isn’t helping by not even coming forward to deny ANY of the allegations.

multiple folks are attacking one’s character, taking away your livelihood, your casts’ livelihood, stripping affiliations, U don’t come out?

These women have nothing to gain by coming forward… a publicist… two supermodels… a respected college coach… #BillCosby

Deposition testimony released where Mr. Cosby admitted giving an interview to the Enquirer so they would squash another woman’s accusations

My grandma always said ‘what’s done in the dark will always come to the light’ … I’m hoping Mr. Cosby didn’t do it. Hurts to think he did
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 11, 2014
But I also feel for the countless women who may have been drugged and abused who had to suffer shame in silence. And those who still haven’t
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 11, 2014
yes these women coming forward now have a lot to lose by falsely accusing Mr. Cosby … I think others will now have courage to come forward
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 11, 2014
it’s innocent until proven guilty… but when one is innocent & everything is being taken away- doesn’t one come out & say “I DIDN’T DO IT?”
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 12, 2014
When all is said and done… the truth will come out. No matter what the finale is… people are going to be hurt from this
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 12, 2014
It must be very frightening to tell the world that a powerful – much loved icon/man molested & assaulted you… who’d believe you?
— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) December 12, 2014
Wow.
We wish she wouldn’t be quite as much of a fence-sitter with a scandal this serious.
But, then again, any support for the alleged victims is a positive sign.
