Atlantic City Police investigating rape allegation against Bill Cosby

Atlantic City police are currently investigating sexual assault allegations against Bill Cosby made last week by former Cosby Show guest star Lili Bernard.

According to Press of Atlantic City, Bernard began speaking with police last week in a five-hour interview about the incident. Bernard claims that Cosby drugged and raped her in Atlantic City in the early 1990s.

***

New Jersey, however, has no statute of limitations for sexual assault cases. So, in Bernard’s case, charges could be filed should police find enough evidence.

***

To date, roughly 40 women have accused the comedian of sexual assault.

My stock answer to all things Bill Cosby:

Though he is probably guilty of rape, I feel Bill Crosby stepped over the liberal line when he spoke of Blacks needing to take responsibility for themselves and their children. He was protected by the left for years, but when he stepped over the line , his crimes were ‘allowed’ to see the light of day.

Seems to me that she is around 25 years late in going to the police.

I agree. Similar to the Roman Polanski Story.

Cosby is a dedicated Obama loving, republican hating democrat, he didn’t make himself a target of a liberal rape conspiracy in that reference he made in a speech, 11 years ago.

Cosby had fame, fortune and looks back in the day. I doubt any aspiring
actress would've said no, or probably even pushed themselves on him.
The very fact that all these women have been actress' or singers leads
me to that assumption.

His crimes have been hinted at for decades. He’s been making these speeches on a regular basis for decades. He pissed off the wrong liberal power broker and got Borked by his own.

Can’t prove that....but it is clear as day to me.

He didn’t give them the chance to say yes or no because he drugged them instead of making advances.

He’s a sick twisted monster.

Rape is a horrible crime. Does it have a 25 year statute of limitations?

I understand the allegations but there isn't any proof. Btw, this is a man issue
imo, regardless of political affiliation. The era was a constant party in Hollyweird.

Neither of those claims are true, and there is no conspiracy.

The first sexual assault police report was filed in 2000, and that was years before he made that comment in a short 2004 speech.

The second police report was filed in 2005 claiming he drugged and raped the director of operations for Temple University's women's basketball team when he was in Pennsylvania, in 2006 he settled out of court with her, after she brought forth 13 more Jane Doe victims of Cosby.

You should look into the rapes, the sex wasn’t dating sex, it was rape, women repeatedly claiming that he drugged them and then raped them.

I’ve seen him interviewed multiple times since then. He always gets back to black responsibility. It hit a nerve. BTW I heard rumors of Cosby having his way with women back in the 80s.

Lili Bernard is a Cuban-born, Los Angeles-based visual artist and actor. She has exhibited her artwork in numerous galleries and institutions. Her work examines issues of trauma born of sexism and racism, past and present. As an actress and member of SAG/AFTRA, Lili guest-starred in the last season of The Cosby Show as the zany and very pregnant Mrs. Minifield. On Seinfeld she played Kramer's Black girlfriend, Anna. She co-starred in the CBS TV mini-series, Stephen King's Golden Years, and played the female lead in the BBC film, Murder in Okland, opposite Ving Rhames and Eriq La Salle. In theatre, Lili has performed extensively in New York City, Off-Broadway, and in Los Angeles.

A mother of six children, to whom she gave birth in a ten year span, Lili is also a published writer and blogger for the Huffington Post. She has garnered critical acclaim as an independent curator, longtime arts activist and community organizer. Lili first created and ran HABLA (Harvesting Asian, Black, Latino Artists) in order to provide platforms for underrepresented artists in Los Angeles. Realizing that Black artists were the most marginalized of the group, Lili then founded and organized BAILA (Black Artists in Los Angeles), a current movement aimed at building bridges of access for Black artists into the mainstream art world.

Lili received her MFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 2014, under the tutelage of professors Suzanne Lacy, Charles Gaines, Ulysses Jenkins and Andrea Bowers. She did her undergraduate studies at Cornell University and City University of New York, earning a B.A. in German. She graduated high school from the American School in Japan, where she spent 11th and 12th grade, and attended New Jersey public schools from kindergarten through tenth grade.
