PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A bombshell email could derail the sexual assault case against comedian Bill Cosby, according to a new report.
The email, obtained by CNN, reportedly details a deal Cosby made in 2005 to keep a deposition in a civil case from ever being used against him in a criminal court.
That deposition is key evidence for prosecutors, who charged the 78-year-old in December with sexually assaulting a former Temple employee back in 2004.
The email was reportedly sent before charges were filed to former Montgomery County district attorney Risa Vetri Ferman by her predecessor.
No comment yet from the DA's office or Cosby's representatives.
