Two more women came forward on Friday accusing veteran comedian Bill Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting them decades ago, when they were in their teens.

“Gilles de Raiss”
A truly sick individual. It’s hard to read some of the accounts of what he did even though they happened so long ago.
*it happened
not that i’m defending the Cos but I agree w/your statement.
If you watch “tv” - you know those crime shows that proliferate on all the maj news networks- you should take note that every single one of those “crimes” that are portrayed on these shows NEVER EVER NEVER shows or portrays a Court of Justice to prosecute it’s all “solved” on the show for the time you are watching it , i.e., if you do watch , & if you want my opinion, it’s a form of brainwashing by the msm
Who knows what this man has done. But the list of complainants is growing exceedingly long w/o calling
Cosby to court.
Is this a media campaign to smear him for his
anti-Obama views?
One wonders.

Can we just start sorting by women Cosby hasn’t done this to.
I, like you, believe most of these claims are false. On the other hand, anyone wanting to make it in Hollywood might keep such things quiet just to preserve their future in the industry ... after all this is the Cos, a maker and shaker back in the day.
I thought there could be charges in at least one case?
Perhaps. But all, what, 32 of them or whatever, keeping it quiet? Unlikely. Some of these supposed rapes happened in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. I do not think that something like this would have been kept for 30+ years. Then again, I am not sure. I’ve never been raped and I certainly don’t have a Hollywood career, so I guess it’s possible to keep something like this shut-up if your livelihood is at stake. But honestly, if the true count is beyond 4, I would be shocked.
I appreciate your opinion and your honesty As for me, I’m beginning to doubt any of this. Accusations are a dime a dozen and mayhap my post can be taken in reverse. To enhance a career, claiming to have been one of the victims can revitalize an otherwise faltering or lost career.
The worst stories haven’t come down to us, as the court ordered them stricken from the record.
De Sade had similar fantasies, but apparently never really got to play them out as de Raiss did.
Meanwhile, BJ Clinton is in a corner somewhere, pounding his fists and counting the notches in HIS belt.
Yeah, the whole thing seems farfetched to me. I’m not saying that he’s innocent, but the whole thing has lost any credibility with me. I just want to stop hearing about it.
“De Sade had similar fantasies, but apparently never really got to play them out as de Raiss did.”
I just finished watching a documentary about De Sade and his writings. Being locked up in prison gave him way too much time on his hands, although I guess writing about such things is preferable to him actually harming people for pleasure. Guess it goes to show that there have always been amoral and twisted individuals and there always will be.
I agree. It is becoming ridiculous. This latest one is bizarre. She kept a “souvenir” matchbook and wrote inside of it “from my night with Bill Cosby”.
Why would someone who was raped keep something like that and write that on it? And she agreed to take a pill after losing a bet?
I have little doubt that some of these rapes actually happened but I’m starting to wonder about many of the others.
Yeah, that’s not the attitude of someone who has been raped. These people aren’t even trying to appear genuine anymore.
Hey, this Gravy Train only passes by once.
Al Sharptons albino sister.....Gloria ?
Lost credibility? How? None of these women have changed their stories or taken them back. That alone speaks volumes. If all of these women are lying you would think at least one outside person would have come forward by now with evidence supporting that. I don’t think Cosby himself has even come forward with any evidence that would challenge or discredit any of these women.
Stop hearing about it? I hope every woman he’s harmed never shuts up about it and reminds him every day of what he’s done.
Read my other posts. You caught the end of a discussion.
Tried and convicted by the media?
As far as I can tell the media is actually doing what they’re supposed to be doing. When 35 women come forward and say they’ve been assaulted/drugged/raped by Bill Cosby, I’m sorry, but that’s a story that should be reported. What are they supposed to do, sweep it under the rug?
As long as they give Cosby a chance to tell his side of the story it’s responsible journalism. The fact that Cosby is choosing not to respond speaks volumes. You would think that he would have been able to discredit at least one of these women by now and tear this story to shreds.
It’s not the media’s fault people are believing these women. It’s Cosby’s.
