Bill Cosby accused of raping ex-girlfriend of Sammy Davis Jr.
NY Daily News ^ | 12/22/14 | Nancy Dillon

**SNIP**

McKee said she’d like to see Cosby sit for a lie-detector test.

She also called it “embarrassing” that Cosby’s wife of 51 years, Camille, released a statement suggesting her husband was the “victim.”

“I knew (Camille). We’d been to dinner, all of us, many times,” McKee said. “This is not a stupid woman. She has her head buried in the sand."

re: Cosby’s wife is always smiling. It’s disturbing.

I think she is thinking of their 400 million net worth.

What’s the count now? How many accusers have there been so far?

With that many conquests I'm surprised he had time for any shows.

If he were as horrible as he's painted, his wife would have "taken him to the cleaners" a LONG time ago.

Ah, the smell of "filty lucre" is in the air.

I can see the headlines now:
“Ten-year-old in obscure Borneo village claims Bill Cosby did NOT rape her”

GOOD one.

I’m a little skeptical of all the rape and molest charges. Major stars do attract such charges from time to time, some true. many simply in hunger for the celebrity’s money.For someone like Cosby all it takes is one highly publicized charged and lawyers and avaricious women will pile on to get a piece of the pie. It’s too late to put him in jail and they all know that but they are all looking for Settlements i.e. free money. Cosby needs to fight hard any of these things that go to law suits. Most of them won’t be able to show sufficient “preponderance of evidence” to win. It will be expensive but cheaper than settling. Settling with one will bring out a hundred more and won’t have an end. Fighting it will make it too expensive for lawyers to risk it on less than convincing cases and most if not all will go away.

No, she isn’t stupid. She knows exactly what is going on and does not care. Cosby has taken care of her and her wagon is hitched to his star, for better or worse. If it all goes down, so does her gravy train. It’s that simple.

Perhaps he will be sud for discrimination by someone who says he left her out. The Disabled lobby will sue him for neglecting paraplegic women.

Camille Cosby is the ‘Ninny of the Year’
By Andrea PeyserDecember 22, 2014

EXCERPT

After living as the wife of a rich entertainer, with houses, cars and fine clothes, I suppose it’s easier for her to defend her man like a lioness than it is to face the possibility that she might be living a lie. Camille Cosby should stop being a ninny.

If you figure one woman every weekend, for forty years...there’s 2080 women involved. A few repeaters in the group..figure 1,500 women. Pretty broad statistical average.

I’m looking at her and don’t know what to say either. Whatever glory she once enjoyed is long over. Jumping on the [ever growing] Cosby rape bandwagon is her ticket to a little $$, or so she thinks.

Was Cosby a bad boy? I’m sure he was. But methinks plenty of these women were willing.

Remember when life was easy, and we could go more than three days without another Cosby rape story? Those were the days.

1. These “women” claiming “rape” remind me of Boy’s Town ladies with similar issues. Amazing how they remember these incidents after so many years.
2. Rape is a very serious issue.
3. “I f****d him and it was awesome” doesn’t quite have the same impact, does it ?

1. The aroma of attorney$ is in the air. Maybe they are expert$ at getting people to remember those "hidden" trauma$. Do you remember that entire episode about memories and rape victims? They suddenly REMEMBER things that didn't happen.
I have an OLD friend who was molested by her step father. She NEVER "forgot" it. They did finally reconcile many, many years later. He acknowledged it and apologized. Seems HE was molested when he had been a boy.
That entire generational sickness STOPPED with my friend.

2. Yes, it is. From what I've read, most victims (male and female) are raped/molested by people they know and often trust.

3. No, it doesn't.

Maybe we should get t-shirts made saying “Bill Cosby raped me and all I got was this t-shirt.”

You say that this is something that is a part of being a celebrity and that we see this from time to time, but when have we ever seen anything like this?

The total is approaching 30 and ranges from many states and cities and covers a period of about 45 years and women as old as their mid 70s, and as recent as 2008.

Cosby has already settled for one drugging rape, when that victim brought forth 13 Jane Does to testify to his rape methods.

And when have we seen the horror of these claims with no push back from the industry and 50 years of people who knew Cosby the best? The silence is deafening from the insiders who know him and his reputation, and the rumors that a man develops over 50 years.

There are less who aren’t accusing him.

Do you remember that basketball star WILT (the Stilt) CHAMBERLAIN? He claimed he had had sex with 20,000 women.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilt_Chamberlain

Funny, NONE of them have come forward with rape charges.
Maybe Wilt is broke now.

Either he has raped a woman, or he has never raped a woman, which is it?

If you notice, he doesn't dismiss every claim of drugging and raping a woman.

Camille is surely not “living a lie.” If these things are true they are way in the past and she surely knows of them or of the proclivity.If I received a ton of accusations from 40 years ago about my wife it would probably not affect me a lot. I have lived with her a very long time and we are quite compatible. Obviously those things are not continuing if true in the first place. I would assume she has made her peace with God and repented if there is something to repent. What else does one need? Why disrupt life in the latter portion for something that is no longer relevant? As for Camille, If BC really were the Rogue that the headlines say he was I suspect she was quite aware when she married him. He would have had a well known in his circle if not public reputation.

Good point, all these posters mocking rape and trying to pretend that being accused of being a serial rapist for 45 years is just part of being a promiscuous celebrity.

Well actually, it isn't at all.
