Bill Cosby 'is paying private investigators six-figure fees to dig up dirt on rape accusers'
Daily Mail ^ | 28 December 2014 | By Ashley Collman for MailOnline

Bill Cosby has refused to address the scores of rape allegations that have been hurled at him in recent months, but that doesn't mean he isn't working to clear his name.

The comedian is allegedly paying private investigators six-figure fees to dig up dirt on the more than two dozen women who have come forward to accuse him of rape, according to a report in the New York Post.

A source told the paper that Cosby has hired a Glendale, California, firm to discredit his many alleged victims' stories.

Even Juanita Broaddrick can do it, so can Catholics.

We would have gotten a whiff of the scandal a long time ago if these allegations were true. Where are all the attorneys barking at Cosby's door? If the women were really serious they would be speaking through attorneys.

You mean like 14 did in 2005?

I’ve always found Bill Cosby to be as creepy as Groucho Marx.

It will be a MOST interesting Hillary presidential campaign, I think. She really is disgusting but I would REALLY, REALLY question her ability to be a president.

--If Putin was a bad boy, Hillary would try to beat him up.
--If the Europeans didn't do what she wanted she would throw a fit and start slapping around bodyguards.
--If bad-boy Kim Jong-un didn't toe the line she would smash in his big, fat chin. World War III because Hillary can't control her temper.

Lol. I'm looking forward to MUCH entertainment from her.

Unfortunately their stories are sieve-like with contradictory evidence that ... well, you get my drift. If Cosby raped as much as these women said he would have had no time for anything else in his life. Also, knowing Hollyweird, there would have been a HINT, whiff or rumor of it LONG before this.

No, "their" stories are not leaking like a sieve, and how does a couple of dozen rapes fill 45 years of a rapist's hours?

And why do you keep pretending that this is all new, and that Cosby hasn't already settled on drugging/raping before, as was reported in the news, many years ago?

One of my dad's favorite shows was "You Bet Your Life." It was Groucho and his straight man announcer, George Fenneman. Funny show. Groucho was smarter than 99% of his contestants...and more SMART ALLECK than 100% of his contestants.

OCCASIONALLY, one of the contestants would get to him and make him laugh. It didn't happen often but it did happen.

See post 19, and quit pretending that all his victims waited for “Thirty. Forty, Fifty years”.

any man accused of rape should do the same thing especially if a woman waited over a year to make the claim.

Perhaps you can POINT US to the defamatory statements Cosby has made regarding these womyn?

Hmmm, crickets.
Thought so.

Well, perhaps he will unload sometime in the future?

========================================

Lol.

Also I note the "cricket" sound coming from the usual plethora of attorneys licking their chops.

and those same 14 womyn were so concerned about it back then in 2005, that they went and reported their stories to the police...

OH WAIT.

NEVERMIND.

Scratch that.

They waited another decade and then demanded Mr. Cosby pay them $100,000,000.

Got it.

Thankfully more women are coming out and unafraid of standing their ground.

Although one of the women off his TV show filed a police report in 2000, the one who really stood her ground was the director of operations for the women's basketball program at Temple University.

"Constand and Bill Cosby became friends while she was at Temple, where Cosby is a familiar presence, particularly around the athletic department. He's a member of the Temple Athletics Hall of Fame, having been on the football and track & field teams during his time at the school in the 1960s, and as recently as a few weeks ago he was helping raise money for the gymnastics team.

Constand went to Cosby's home for dinner parties, or sometimes for dinner just between the two of them. They would talk about basketball, her career, other job opportunities, even her spiritual beliefs. In court filings, both sides agree to that. Then, in January 2004, Cosby invited Constand, 30, over to his Cheltenham home. He told her he wanted to "offer her assistance in her pursuit of a different career," according to her lawsuit. She got there about 9 p.m.

What happened next, according to Constant, is outlined in her suit: Constand told Cosby she "was feeling stressed about making her career decision." He offered her three blue pills, calling them herbal medication, and said they would help her relax. When Constand asked if she needed to take all three, Cosby said yes. She took them and started to shake; she felt dizzy and weak. Her limbs went slack and she felt barely conscious."

You really don’t seem to know anything about this, you just keep posting made up nonsense, deliberately being dishonest.

Cosby has already settled with attorneys on one rape, why do you keep pretending to not know that?

Why didn’t he sue his many accusers in the past, over the years?

Oh, I’m so sorry. I forgot we live in the new America.

Where only women are allowed to speak.

Men have to shut up and go to the back of the bus...

Creepy Comics
He was funny in movies, as a young man.
But early in their careers, Groucho and his two brothers would hire a prostitute and then they would share her, take turns with her. That’s at least as creepy as a David Letterman.
And I thought he was a creepy host on “You Bet Your Life”.
If Cosby did the things he’s accused of, well, he’s worse than a creep.

So let me get this straight. A woman can have sex with a man and then years later, declare it a rape?

ONLY if he's got a lot of money.
If he were really a rapist Hollyweird would have gotten whiff of it a long time ago. If ALL those women were raped, wouldn't you THINK that the news MIGHT have leaked out sometime, somewhere? Most women who are RAPED won't be "bought off." They want their rapist's BLOOD.

Despite what is being said by any/everyone, we won't ever know the true story.
Those who believe the army of women, fine. Rape.
Those who don't (consensual sex) will be excoriated by those who believe all the women.

The complaining women aren't going to get a penny when all is said and done. The attorneys will get it all.
And, if these bimbettes women ghost-write a book, they will LATER complain that the AGENTS took all their book money. They really are doomed by dumb.

Fornication and adultery are sins, aren't they? Unless they (bimbettes and Cosby) ask for forgiveness from God, they will have to deal with a Higher Authority later. God knows the truth.

Arnold Schwarzenegger used to be notoriously litigious back in the 1980’s and 90s. He would do anything to stop someone from “telling lies” about him. Extremely protective of what he considered his Brand or social standing. Cosby is beyond the veil of protection now. The more these incidents are discussed, the worse it is for what remains of his image. A damning momentum has been established, and he remains stuck, locked into a Spin Cycle.
