Bill Cosby, Now Inmate NN7687, Placed in Single Cell

|Updated:

Bill Cosby spent his first night in prison alone, in a single cell near the infirmary, as he began his 3-to-10-year sentence for sexual assault.

Corrections officials announced on Sept. 26, that Cosby—now known as Inmate No. NN7687—will serve his sentence at SCI Phoenix, a new state prison about 20 miles from the gated estate where a jury concluded he drugged and molested a woman in 2004. The $400 million lockup opened two months ago and can hold 3,830 inmates.
