Did Malcolm-Jamal Warner Just Victimize Himself Over the Cosby Allegations?

Maybe stick to being silent on this one Theo.

The number is up to 55, as in women accusing Bill Cosby of slipping them a roofie and sexual assaulting each of them. There are federal lawsuits pending, criminal investigations ongoing, high-powered attorneys salivating, and so much disgrace happening.

All of it focused on one man.

Cosby, 78, who still has his wife Camille by his side has been reported as “aloof” by some and “smug” by others when asked about these heinous allegations. And while the spotlight of public ire remains on Cosby and his noted pleather sweaters, the man who played his onscreen son Theo has managed to do the unthinkable — somehow make it a little about him.

Wait, what?! 

Malcolm-Jamal Warner has benefitted greatly from being on one of the best sitcoms of all time, “The Cosby Show.”
