Bill Cosby's spokesman says the comedian thinks prison is an 'amazing experience'

"Despite the circumstances, he said this is an awesome experience", Wyatt told NBC 10 Philadelphia in a series of interviews published this week.

Imprisoned sex offender Bill Cosby claims he's a "political prisoner" like Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela or Martin Luther King, Jr. - declaring in a freaky new prison letter that he's been locked up for his humanitarian contributions to society. I waived my 5th amendment rights; I was declared not guilty in 2005 by the Commonwealth - never charged.

'However, a low-life District Attorney and a corrupt Judge needed me Guilty now.

"I now have a temporary residence that resembles the quarters of some of the Greatest Political Prisoners - Martin Luther King, Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Randal Robinson, and Dr. Benjamin Chavis", the missive continues.

Cosby is now being held at the SCI-Phoenix prison in Philadelphia, where he was recently moved to general population from a specialized unit.

Perhaps that attitude stems from Cosby's belief that he is a political prisoner. "The Truth is Strong!" he said. He has lost weight, and is down to 195 pounds, according to Wyatt.

In the TV interview, Wyatt states that Cosby is in "mentally strong". And if he needs any extras in prison, he certainly has the cash in his commissary account. That was Cosby's idea, said Wyatt.

Cosby does not have a cellmate and speaks to his wife Camille on the phone three times each day for three minutes at a time.

Other than Cosby's attorneys, Wyatt is the only person to visit him while in prison; Wyatt visits Cosby almost every other week.

Cosby is now serving a three- to 10-year sentence at the State Correctional Institute Phoenix in Collegeville after a jury found him guilty on three counts of aggravated indecent assault for a 2004 incident in which Andrea Constand alleged that she was drugged and sexually molested by Cosby at his Pennsylvania home.

Wyatt said he visits Cosby every other week - and the star's attorneys visit as well.
