This legal document, a court opinion, concludes that an individual named Cosby reasonably relied on a decision by former District Attorney Castor not to prosecute him. The court asserts that Castor intended for this reliance to occur, which led Cosby to incriminate himself in four depositions, thereby depriving him of his Fifth Amendment rights. The court maintains that the absence of a formal, written promise does not negate the violation of Cosby's due process rights, as his detrimental reliance is evident from the record.
