UPDATED: 4:35 p.m. EDT — Bill Cosby was expected to be sentenced to no more than three years, the judge presiding over his sexual assault trial and sentencing hearing said Monday. But it was unclear when he would be sentenced because of a reported request submitted by the defense at the start of the two-day sentencing hearing on Monday.

Cosby was being sentenced about five months after he was found guilty of sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004.

The hearing was expected to last two days to afford Constand and Cosby’s alleged victims an opportunity to offer their “victim impact statements” to the disgraced comedian.

According to Deadline, Cosby’s “lawyers today made a last-ditch sleight-of-hand that could knock the two-day sentencing hearing off the rails right after it started and keep him from potentially going behind bars this week.”

Bill Cosby was scheduled on Monday to be sentenced for his sexual assault conviction, but not before his confirmed and alleged victims literally have their say. The woman who a jury found was drugged and groped by the disgraced comedian was expected to lead a group of women making their “victim impact statements” to Cosby ahead of his sentencing, which was set to last two days.

Cosby arrived at the courthouse in Norristown, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philadelphia, with his legal team in tow. His main accuser, Andrea Constand, had already arrived, as well as other accusers, including former supermodel Janice Dickinson.

A small group of protesters had assembled outside the courthouse in a scene that was similar to the retrial, which ended in April and followed the original trial that ended in a mistrial last year.

Regardless of the sentencing – Cosby could either be sentenced to a maximum 30 years and be led out of the courtroom in handcuffs or he could be sentenced to probation – the case is likely bound to continue as defense attorneys were expected to announce an immediate appeal.

Cosby’s fall from grace has been especially notable because he built his career on a clean, family-friendly image that was shredded when he was indicted and arrested on Constand’s accusation that had gone all but ignored until Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele won his election and vowed to finish the job his predecessor never started.

The comedian’s wife filed an ethics complaint with the state judicial board last week claiming Judge Steven O’Neill was biased, but the accusation wasn’t expected to affect the sentencing.

Below are some of the scenes from Cosby’s sentencing hearing. The photos and videos will be updated as they become available.
