Many people want to see Bill Cosby back in prison and that includes his cell mates, but they want him back for a different reason.
According to Cosby’s rep Andrew Wyatt, his old cell mates at SCI Phoenix call him at least three times a week because they miss their guru.
Within the prison walls, Wyatt says Cosby became the voice of reason — solving disputes among inmates, giving advice, and pushing education as a way to improve their lives.
In addition, he claims that Cosby encouraged prisoners to prove to the corrections officers and the warden that they could be good citizens on the inside, and prove they were ready to follow through if released or paroled.
In a strange twist of irony, the former “America’s Dad” now appears to be “America’s Dad” among the prisoners in Pennsylvania State Prison.
According to Wyatt, he handles most calls from inmates, but says that Cosby does try to get on the line from time to time to say hello.
Sources say that Cosby’s former cell mates want him back at SCI Phoenix as a motivational speaker as soon as he’s free.
Cosby is planning something similar in the future, according to Wyatt, but for the time being, he’s focused on his legal challenges.
