Bill Cosby Pays Off $1.8 Million Tax Lien From Behind Bars

If Bill Cosby ever gets out of prison, he's going to find his bank accounts a little lighter than he remembers.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the State of California Franchise Tax Board filed a release of lien for Cosby and his wife Camille.

The lien was for $1.8 million in back taxes stemming from 2015. Cosby was hit with the lien last August, which was just one day after Cosby’s lead defense attorney in his retrial asked to be removed from the case.
