Ex-NBC employee Frank Scotti claims Bill Cosby paid off women
NY Daily News ^ | 11/23/14

Posted on 11/23/2014 1:28:52 AM PST by BunnySlippers

Back when Bill Cosby was the king of network television, veteran NBC employee Frank Scotti served as the royal fixer.

When Cosby invited young models into his Brooklyn dressing room, the megastar’s pal stood watch outside the door. When the married Cosby sought a Queens apartment for another pretty face, Scotti arranged the deal.

And when the man behind Fat Albert needed cash disbursed to his flock of single female friends — hey, hey, hey — Scotti became the conduit for payments of up to $2,000 a month.

“He had everybody fooled,” said Scotti in an exclusive interview with the Daily News. “Nobody suspected.”

Scotti came forward last week with his insider’s look at Cosby’s womanizing ways during the magical 1984-92 run of “The Cosby Show.”

The Cosby Affair, a perfect 2 for 1 Dem punch.

a. Like Rodney King and O.J.Simpson it'll further incite blacks to join in the vicious glories of the "Ferguson Event".

b. It joins the ever-increasing number of articles that enflame the Male vs Female debate in anticipation of the Clinton quest to regain power.

Ever get the feeling there are things happening that we can't quite see, but that we can only smell?

Like how the last 3 presidential candidates have had NBC problems?

The Coz is not the first celeb to fall to the trappings of his position.

This leads one to think that if it were boys instead of women, he would be considered a victim and then a hero.

YOu know, it comes down again... to being without any moral compass. No religious basis. And I’ll go one step further, that it’s not being Christian.

OUr current imposter in chief, has absolutely no Christian backround. Like ISIS, he says they are without religion...so is he. Although we all know his faith is Islam. NObody truts him...and it will get more obvious that the man lacks character.

True men of faith...will have their urges to commit sin..and wage the battle with it everyday hopefully alone where they hurt no one but themselves...but those whom we put our trust in... we pay money to, allowing them into our homes....those who betray the national trust are the ones who, in the end, wind up with nothing.

Cosby had a incredible story...family, professional, educational....10 honorary degrees...a Navy man....but no faith?

In the end... he’s a lonely guy who will wither away into oblivion. Those close to him knew of his real side... like they knew of Rock Hudson.

I don’t see this ending up any other than bad. He’s made too many enemies on both sides of the political spectrum.

Unles... I guess unless, he confesses his sins and asks for our forgiveness....but he’s 77. IT might be too late.

“ he feels sorry for the women”.

Who feels sorry for hookers as long as they're well paid?

What was the felony? Paying women money? At no point does he say that he saw anything. He assumed. He even admits that money was paid for school tuition for the woman’s kid... and other things.

Everyone is piling on the man.

Well, you wouldn’t expect him to incriminate himself would you? I’ll bet you could convince a jury he was a party to criminal acts. Accepting large sums of cash for payoffs, guarding the rooms, etc. Also, in many instances, mentions of some type of drugs were used. You don’t think Cos went out and bought them by himself, do you?

I’m not piling on him. I’ll let a court and jury do that. But at the same time, I’m not fool enough to believe his enabler is squeaky clean, either. But, in the end, Cosby will end up paying more cash to keep these accusers quiet, and nothing will come of what he did because of the length of time since they happened.

“Kind of creepy that this guy waits until he’s 90 years to to come clean because “ he feels sorry for the women”.”

Not really:

1. His testimony as seen in the article was not enough by itself too prove Bill Cosby raped the women and the underage girls. Scotti could have been severely punished by Bill Cosby and his attorneys if he had made such allegations without the supporting testimonies of the women who were raped by Bill Cosby.

2. Enough of the women who alleged to have been raped by Bill Cosby have now come forward with their testimonies to make Scotti’s testimony, evidence, and old money orders strong supporting evidence.

3. Scotti’s age makes it necessary to come forward now that the alleged rape victims can benefit from the supporting evidence before Scotti is deceased and unable to help the victims; and Scotti is old enough for Bill Cosby’s potential retaliation to have little remaining importance.

So, it makes perfect sense that Scotti feels he may not reasonably risk the legal consequences of coming forward before now, especially when you consider how previous rape victims were left without a voice and were dismissed as liars at the time of a previous out of court settlement of the rape lawsuits.

And the Cos continues to circle the bowl, on his way to the septic tank.

How did the Telegraph miss this? This kind of dish usually plays in the British press before we poor Americans ever get wind of it.

We all know Hussein isn't NBC eligible.

Mc Lame had a problem as well. He was born in Panama. Not a US hospital on canal territory. Panamanian soil 100%

Myth's daddy was not born a US citizen. His father was a Mexican.

Just what are the odds? 2x back to back against one with known NBC ineligibility!

This whole dog pile on the holy pope of black tv families by YT is more gas on the race fires!

My understanding is that he paid them and/or was paying them.
