Atlantic City Police investigating rape allegation against Bill Cosby

Atlantic City police are currently investigating sexual assault allegations against Bill Cosby made last week by former Cosby Show guest star Lili Bernard.

According to Press of Atlantic City, Bernard began speaking with police last week in a five-hour interview about the incident. Bernard claims that Cosby drugged and raped her in Atlantic City in the early 1990s.

***

New Jersey, however, has no statute of limitations for sexual assault cases. So, in Bernard’s case, charges could be filed should police find enough evidence.

***

To date, roughly 40 women have accused the comedian of sexual assault.

In his line of work, Cosby would have met a lot of actresses and singers. Some were women he offered to help with their careers. In one case, he earned the woman’s trust by letting her bring her little daughter with her to his house for dinner, where he behaved as a perfect gentleman. When the woman went back again without her daughter, Cosby allegedly drugged her. If the numerous stories are true, Cosby was extremely clever. He knew how to get these women to trust him.

If you have a low opinion of actresses and singers, that’s fine, but even if they were women of low morals willing to have consensual sex with Cosby, they still did not deserve to be drugged and raped.

Isn’t any proof? He paid a settlement to one of his accusers.

He’s as guilty as sin.

You keep putting out things that you can’t source, Cosby hasn’t been making the statements for decades.

His crimes have not been hinted at for decades, and you have not been hearing rape rumors since the 1980s.

And there is no national rape scandal conspiracy against him involving women ranging in age from their 20s through their 70s, some wealthy and famous, about rapes in various states and cities.

Besides, why would you want to imply that we knew that he was raping women as far back as the 1980s, yet claim that the rape accusations are a conspiracy by the left to pay him back for his 2004 “Pound Cake speech”?

“The Pound Cake speech was given by Bill Cosby in May 2004 during an NAACP awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision.[1] In it, Cosby was highly critical of members of subsets of the black community in the United States. He criticized the use of African American Vernacular English, the prevalence of single-parent families, the emphasis on frivolous and conspicuous consumption at the expense of necessities, lack of responsibility, and other behaviours.”

I’m not sourcing anything. this was my opinion from various experiences viewing various interviews given by Mr. Cosby. and I stand by it as just that...an opinion.

is Wednesday your usual day for second guessing people here? you show up once in a while and decide to start an argument...usually with more than one person. it must be your hobby, fine. find someone else to ply your knowitall BS with. or perhaps go take some black and white photos(or is it sepia?) of national monuments, Ansel.

hope you had fun Googling all your data.

I haven’t mentioned your opinion except for it all being a national conspiracy, only the fake facts that you keep posting.

You need to relax on the personal attacks and just look at what you are posting, it is fake fact filled, so naturally those facts get challenged and refuted.

His crimes have been hinted at for decades. He’s been making these speeches on a regular basis for decades. He pissed off the wrong liberal power broker and got Borked by his own. Can’t prove that....but it is clear as day to me.

What artists, performers and stars at Hollywood parties WEREN'T doing drugs and drinking and having sex - all at the same time - especially in the 60's. 70's & 80's? Yet now these women were "drugged agains their will" after being "afraid to talk about it" ofr a quarter-century. By a guy who otherwise displayed a personality that is the utter, absolute opposite of everything the Left wants Blacks to be, and who actually called out Black people to shape up, go to school, parent their children and obey the law.

Yeah, huge mystery as to what's actually going on here.

Otherwise, let's just toss the law altogether, and let any female, of any age, at any time, with no evidence, scream "rapist" at someone and have the cops just arrive and shoot the guy. I mean, why not? Women always tell the truth so no eveidence is needed, they are never responsible for their own misfortunes because they are always victimized, and and any man who they choose to target deserves destruction simply because they are female and he is a man and really nothing else needs to be said. Right?

Finally, someone making sense of the whole thing. Publicity seekers will continue to come out of the woodwork until the sensational nature of it finally dies down.

Were these women drugged, or did he go out on a date and sugest they take pills before they went up to his room with them to have sex?

If the woman took the pills voluntarily after being propositioned for sex, then she can not claim rape..I mean what did they think he was giving them pills and inviting them upstairs for?. If he slipped it into their drinks without their knowledge, it is rape.

which is why most of the Black community figure Mike Tyson was railriaded in his rape conviction, because she went to his hotel room. (Medically her injuries won her case).

Reminds me of the Kennedy Smith trial in Palm Beach
I worked in pharmaceuticals with a woman who had been a Palm beach forensic specialist. She was told by the DA well before the trial that William Kennedy Smith was a dirtbag but not a rapist. He met the woman in the bar....took her to the compound....had his way....the told her to LEAVE.

She was devastated.....so she cried rape. They knew this up front but had to go through the procedure to placate the feminists.

The accusations are of being slipped a drug to incapacitate them and rape them, and you want to dismiss it as just partying?

The accusations of rape and sexual assault against Cosby is up to about 40 women, and covers 5 decades, women ranging in age from their 20s to their mid 70s, and a number of different states and cities, and you want to compare it to that case?

Twenty to thirty years later, with massive potential political effects of an impending presidential election as well as rioting in the streets, with zero evidence and to the complete opposite of Cosby's presented character for almost fifty years?

You're damn right I dismiss it as just partying - IF even that! More like political payoffs!

That is a total lie, completely false and you already know it is, your rants are getting more and more bizarre in defending the rapes.

The first police report on these assaults was 15 years ago, he settled out of court for a drugging/rape in 2006, which was for a rape in 2004, in that case 13 other Jane Does came forward, this current news cycle about this republican hating liberal started long before Baltimore and the current riots, and presidential cycle.

The reason that Cosby has no defenders is because his character for the last 50 years was seen as bad, by the people who knew him best. Cosby was married, but was always trying to squelch the breaking out of his sex scandals and sexual assaults.

Shut your insulting pig mouth, Ansel. You rely on insults and filth because you're pushing an agenda that doesn't hold water on a number of highly significant and required levels. Because of that, surprise surprise, not everyone agrees with you. So try to find some shred of personal integrity to deal with that fact, instead of spouting filth.

Try addressing the facts.

This is just silly nonsense. “”Twenty to thirty years later, with massive potential political effects of an impending presidential election as well as rioting in the streets, with zero evidence and to the complete opposite of Cosby’s presented character for almost fifty years?
You’re damn right I dismiss it as just partying - IF even that! More like political payoffs!””

You know that your time line is totally false, you know that your claim about his character is totally false, you know that your new attempt to tie this to recent news and the 2016 presidential election is totally false.

As Elaine said on Seinfeld, fake!, fake!, fake!

You might also want to rethink your nasty personal insults and attacks, to someone accurately pointing out that you are telling lies.

So you double down on your filthy mouth and insults, of course. After all, you’re paid to - and you don’t have anything else, like EVIDENCE.

I don’t think he raped those women, Ansel.

Deal with it.

So your conspiracy now runs to freepers being hired and paid by the vast and complex national liberal conspiracy against the liberal, pro-Obama, republican hating black man, Bill Cosby. The lefty who was part of the Tawana Brawley hoax.

The man who has already settled on a drugging/rape accusation in 2006 against the director of operations for Temple University’s women’s basketball team when he was in Pennsylvania.
