A 72-year-old New Hampshire woman who says Bill Cosby raped her in 1965 has withdrawn her civil defamation lawsuit against the comedian. Kristina Ruehli filed a notice to voluntarily dismiss the suit Friday. It came after a federal judge in Springfield, near where Cosby has a home, rejected the comedian's bid to dismiss the case Thursday. Ruehli's lawyer, Megan Deluhery, tells The Associated Press her client has decided not to pursue the lawsuit because the legal landscape has changed.

Either bought off or she was a liar to begin with. IMHO.
Perhaps Hillary bought her off. Slick keeps getting mentioned every time the Cos gets accused these days. Not good for Hillary’s current career aspirations.
You have to keep in mind that Cosby is a hugely successful black man who has never been on the plantation. He may be a liberal, but he has very often spoken up for values like personal responsibility.
In other words, for the left and its victimhood politics, Bill Cosby is the kind of man who must be taken down at all cost. And drumming up sexual assault allegations of dubious veracity is a good way to do it, especially against a black man.
I have always been skeptical of the claims.
Especially what? Thirty years or so in the past? Now they come forward? And what was a fifteen year old doing in the Playboy mansion in the first place?
Have not heard of any conservative/Republican/Christian threatening to leave America if Hillary is elected president. OTOH - how many snowflake Hollyweird folks threaten to do the the same thing if a Republican is elected - but never leave?
That is an *excellent* question.
In other words, he paid her off.
The legal landscape changed = the check cleared
She got her 15 minutes of fame...and I doubt if she got one penny from him despite her high hopes when she filed the suit.
Her mouthpiece probably told her to cut and run. There's nothing in it for him, either.
Cosby is hanging tough. There will be more drop-outs.

Cosby is a rich democrat. He will get away with any crimes he commits (committed).
Just like hiLIARy.
It’s called hypocrisy. While he goes around acting like he’s a paragon of virtue, he has spent over 50 years drugging and raping young women while his wife (who has known all along) kept her mouth shut. This is plain evil.
