BILL Cosby is set to be released from prison after his charges were dropped due to an "unfair trial."<\/p>\n

Cosby has served more than two years of a three to 10-year sentence at a state prison near Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

He had vowed to serve all 10 years rather than acknowledge any remorse over the 2004 encounter with accuser Andrea Constand.<\/p>\n

The 83-year-old Cosby, who was once beloved as "America\u2019s Dad," was convicted of drugging and molesting the Temple University employee at his suburban estate.<\/p>\n

He was charged in late 2015, when a prosecutor armed with newly unsealed evidence \u2014 Cosby\u2019s damaging deposition from her lawsuit \u2014 arrested him days before the 12-year statute of limitations expired.<\/p>\n

The trial judge had allowed just one other accuser to testify at Cosby\u2019s first trial, when the jury deadlocked.<\/p>\n
