Last August, the day before Cosby's lawyer asked to be removed from his retrial, the state filed a $1.8 million lien for the taxes owed by Cosby and his wife Camille from the year 2015 (a lien being a hold on assets until the debt is payed off). The state of California has applied to lift the lien after Cosby payed the almost $2 million from jail. The specific prison is called the Phoenix Pennsylvania’s State Correctional Institute (yes, named after the bird that rises from the ashes, which Cosby likely won't do) where Cosby could end up as part of their 1200-person workforce hemming pants for $0.49 an hour.
