Bill Cosby made a deal which the prosecutor subsequently violated with the result that Mr. Cosby is free regardless of his freaking obvious guilt.They should still prosecute him criminally, for what he has done to the 11 women. That is not even just a misdemeanor considering the crimes committed which are felonies.

If somebody in the AG's office promised no prosecution in exchange for Cuomo's resignation then its going to be pretty hard to charge him much less successfully prosecute.

At this point the alleged victims are thinking about civil action and cash.
Down the road, the criminal cases will be dropped and everyone will cry out that Cuomo got off and the poor victims did not get any justice. Not really though. They will use the criminal action as leverage for a cash settlement.
And let us not descend into legal ratholes. I get that those are two separate tracks and the government can still compel them as witnesses if the government has a boner for still prosecuting. As a practical matter though, when the alleged victims assert that they have been substantially made whole or are satisfied by the settlement in the case, the government has other things to do.
Cha ching, cha ching.
