The 83-year-old disgraced comedian’s request was turned down following a virtual interview on May 7 due to in part his refusal to participate or complete a treatment program for sex offenders and violence prevention, PEOPLE can confirm.
At the time, Constand said in a statement regarding the appeal that she has “no doubt that the Supreme Court of PA will do the right thing.”
“I respectfully ask the Supreme Court of PA to consider the enormous prospect of putting my perpetrator back into the community after being labelled a convicted sexually violent predator who has shown no remorse for his actions,” she wrote.
“While everyone deserves for their cries and appeals to be heard, even convicted criminals, if anyone’s cries matter most right now, it’s the women who have lifted their voices and selflessly put themselves in harm’s way, such as the prior bad act witnesses in my case. They are the true heroes,” she added. “Regardless of our national heritage, color, creed or identity we all deserve justice, that is a fact.”
