Little testimony about other accusations against Cosby was allowed in the Pennsylvania trial because of the strict standards for admitting evidence in criminal cases.
Bill Cosby listens to his wife Camille's statement being read aloud by Ebonee M. Benson outside the Montgomery County Courthouse after a mistrial in his sexual assault case in Norristown, Pa., Saturday, June 17, 2017. Three are defamation cases in which accusers say Cosby defamed them as liars, and two are civil assault lawsuits. Camille Cosby, 73, only attended one day of the trial with her husband.
Prosecutors in Bill Cosby's sexual assault trial have vowed to try him a second time. Cosby's trial ended without a verdict after jurors failed to reach a unanimous decision.
Gasps could be heard in the courtroom as District Attorney Kevin Steele said he intends to retry the case.
When the trial started June 5, the jury of seven men and five women were bussed in from Allegheny County near Pittsburgh and have since been sequestered in a hotel.
Cosby remains on $1 million bail over the three felony charges.
"In most instances, the prosecution is going to take that case to trial again", she said.

The Associated Press does not typically identify people who say they are victims of sexual assault unless they grant permission. Prosecutors rejected filing a case against Mr Cosby based on Ms Goins's allegations, which they said investigators could not corroborate.
The state also tried to fortify its case with testimony from Constand's mother and another Cosby accuser, former Hollywood agent assistant Kelly Johnson, who testified she was the victim of a similar assault by Cosby.
A decade later, a new district attorney reopened the case after Cosby's lurid testimony became public and dozens of women came forward against him.
Constand herself sued Cosby in 2005 and settled for an undisclosed sum. Heinously and exploitively ambitious.
A jury deliberated for more than 52 hours over six days before declaring itself hopelessly deadlocked.
There are many other variables to consider for the next trial - like what people already know about the case and whether Constand will elaborate on any new details, even whether new witnesses are called.
Iran's Missile Strikes on ISIS, Strong Warning to US: Syrian Minister
The U.S. -led coalition in Syria meanwhile is keeping a close eye on Iran's military involvement with the Syrian regime. Iran's missile strike at ISIS Sunday in retaliation for the attacks in Tehran was a flop, the Times of Israel reports .
In a country where sexual attacks still go underreported, they argue, Bill Cosby epitomizes exactly what needs to be done away with - the idea that privilege can shield predators.
Under questioning from her lawyer, Cosby acknowledged that he had obtained several prescriptions for quaaludes in the 1970s for the objective of offering the powerful sedative to women he wanted to have sex with.
An aide to Cosby, Ebonee Benson, read his wife's statement to this effect outside the courtroom Saturday, as Cosby stood silent. Overtly and arrogantly collaborating with the District Attorney.
Cosby's lawyers countered by pointing out inconsistencies in Constand's story, and noted she had taken the pills willingly.
Prosecutors plan to retry the comedian on sexual assault charges. Cosby's lawyer says he and Constand were lovers sharing a consensual sexual encounter.
The judge then declared a mistrial for the 79-year-old comedian.
Cosby was charged with three counts of aggravated indecent assault.
Constand testified that the assault had occurred as she visited the home of Bill Cosby, who was a Temple trustee, when she was 30 and he was 66.
As if to demonstrate just how firmly the battle lines have been drawn in this case, Cosby's camp gave no sign that they would give in to speculation over his past relationships with women.
The statement also sharply criticised the judge and prosecutors for pursuing the case.
Two women jurors who appeared to be in their 30s or 40s looked anguished when they announced the final deadlock, wiping away tears with tissues handed to them by a sympathetic young man sitting between them. The entertainer, once known as America's Dad, offered Father's Day greetings to well-wishers outside the courthouse after court adjourned.
The judge, meanwhile, assured the panel members - whose identities remain sealed by court order - that he appreciated their efforts throughout the two-week trial.
Judge Steven O'Neill refused, saying there's no precedent to halt the jury's work.
After 9 p.m. on Thursday, the judge said 12 hours of deliberations was long enough and the jurors were later sent home.
