Bill Cosby Sued for Sexually Assaulting 15-Year-Old Girl
Rolling Stone ^ | Dec. 3, 2014 | Daniel Kreps

Posted on 12/04/2014 8:02:52 AM PST by SteveH

As the number of sexual assault allegations against Bill Cosby grows, the comedian is now facing a lawsuit from a woman who claims Cosby molested her when she was 15. In a suit filed at Los Angeles County Superior Court on Tuesday, Judy Huth states that Cosby sexually assaulted her at the Playboy Mansion in 1974, the Los Angeles Times reports. The lawsuit marks the first time the latest wave of accusations against Cosby has resulted in legal action.

While the state of California can only pursue criminal charges against Cosby had the incident occurred in 1988 or after due to the statute of limitations, a civil trial could proceed if Huth can prove that she has developed "psychological injuries and illnesses" in the past three years as a result of the decades-old alleged assault.

Oh? No books to ghost write. No $100,000 payout to do an exclusive interview... Nope. Absolutely *no* money to be made off the name of a celebrity to be made here...

The republican hating racist Bill Cosby, dedicated democrat and Obama supporter was personally involved in a rape hoax that he helped feed.

Brawley was an obvious rape hoax, yet he put up a reward and wrote publicly on the “racism” involved in the “rape”.

So Cosby never raped a single one of these 20 women that have come forth over the last 14 or 16 years?

Did you even read what I wrote?

If you’re evaluatinq contradictory testimony you have to address the potential motives of each side. Is there evidence of motive to lie?

You assume that Bill Cosby is lyinq. Why do you assume that?

You assume that each of these women is tellinq the truth. Why do you assume that?

If, riqht before he ran for the 2016 Presidential primary, a bunch of Tea Partiers all of a sudden claimed that John McCain had raped them 30 years aqo, would it be unreasonable to ask if there were any “moderates” who had accused him? The issue is motive.

Hollywood’s motives are fairly obvious to most reasonable people. If somebody is in the Hollywood crowd, or wants to be in the Hollywood crowd, or is interested in beinq paid by the Hollywood crowd..... it could be a motive, just like Tea partiers could have a motive...

The world would be very interested if all the accusers of a political fiqure were Tea Partiers. You know they would. Why doesn’t the same question rise for Hollywood? Why do you, the “conservative sheep doq” think it unreasonable to ask if the accusers are all Hollywood wannabe’s?

I can have opinions, even powerful ones, without ever meeting or vetting the accused or the accusers, or even knowing their names.

Why? the media tells me so. And YOU. No surprises with the media agenda.

you both are following the same meme as our president (”the cops acted stupidly).

How do you feel about Darren Wilson?

Why? because accusations are more important than evidence. Be consistent.

Somebody please find me enough rope for the Gentle Giant Killer and the Fat Albert Serial Rapist.

Both are guilty as hell & the court of public opinion is the only one that matters. If I was still trying to make myself puke for weight loss, I bet a week of watching Nancy Grace would help me get into those skinny jeans. Is she covering this? I don’t know - but how could she resist? She is the poster child of lynch first, never ever apologize. And evidence, or lack thereof, means the perp “escaped” justice.

And you told me to go do my own investigation so I can justify lynching the rich black guy. How about you provide the info I asked for several times.

Constand Cosby, cosby constand...did he rape a relative?

Well, that’s just gross. Rape AND incest? Was he so evil he had to drug and rape a family member?

LOL, I never said that “each” of the women are telling the truth, but you are saying that “each” of the twenty women are lying.

You assume that all of the 20 women are lying, including the one that Cosby settled with in 2005 when she had 13 more women to testify to the Drugging/rape method, all of which followed a 200 police report by another woman.

Your posts on Bill Clinton and Juanita Broaddrick must be as passionate and devoted to playing like we are a courtroom instead of a discussion forum, as the ones you make on Cosby’s 20 accusers.

Your posts aren’t even making any sense anymore, you say that you don’t know anything about the rapes and accusers, and you insist on not knowing, your posts are just weird.

The Daily Mail has a good article of the women from the 60’s and 70’s who claim they were drugged by him. They don't seem like Bimbos to me.

Bimbos. And if they're not bimbos; they are con artists and liars.

So that is possibly one, the other 19?

December 18, 2006

“What Cosby never mentioned was the civil lawsuit he settled just two days earlier with Andrea Constand, 32, a former Temple University employee who claimed Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her in his Philadelphia-area mansion in 2004. Constand’s lawyers Dolores Troiani and Bebe Kivitz ended up with 13 witnesses, most referred to in court documents as “Jane Does,” who came forward voluntarily with strikingly similar claims of drugging and or abuse by Cosby. Terms of the settlement, reached before any of the women could testify, were not disclosed. But PEOPLE reporters have interviewed five of the women and share three of their stories now.”

“Brawley was an obvious rape hoax, yet he put up a reward and wrote publicly on the “racism” involved in the “rape”.”

I get it. It makes my point. This is what they are willing to do to a guy like this. I’d love to know what kind of dirt is under Sharpton’s nails wrt drugs and sex with girls of an inappropriate age.

You believe that idiot they put up to lynch Clarence Thomas? Whenever this is done TO ANYBODY, its a bad thing.

There’s a real life guy named Barry who went to Oberlin College that is getting death threats and all kinds of other grief because that steaming crack Lena Dunham invented a rape story involving a mythical republican in purple boots who had a low voice and ran a radio show. The loonies Googled ‘barry Oberlin 2005’ and came up with some poor shmoe. She’s letting him twist out there.

With Clinton, there was a dress. I’d wager Kathleen Willey’s got pictures and evidence too somewhere. I remember so many bodies hitting the floor that were connected to those diseased people (Clintons) during the 90’s that an actuarial calculated that the possibilities were astronomical of such a thing happening. There was evidence, but no appetite to go after them, really. Now W is hanging with Bill - brothers.

This feels like a warning to the rest of the liberal plantation, what’s happening to Cosby. Message goes double for the GOP, however.

Sober up, lose the run-on sentences and thinly-veiled adhoms, then re-read my posts.

If it helps...I have repeatedly asked about ONE accuser - the one you keep harping on.

You champion her, yet expect me to find info to bolster your claims.

Do it yourself.

So Bill Cosby wanted to convict the white men for raping Tawana Brawley in a hoax that took about 30 seconds to see through, and you want to call 20 women covering a 40 year span of claimed rapes and a court settlement he has already made to one of them the same thing?

See post 171, this is not Tawana Brawley or Anita Hill.

and there was no semen stained dress to support Juanita Broaddrick 1997 claim of being raped by Clinton in 1978, did you believe her?

Your post 167 was one whacked out post.

I can see how you manage to be so engaged in posting on a subject that you admit not knowing anything about, and that you will not look into.

And because the women have now come forward, they are all bimbos? How do you reach that conclusion? Apparently you know little to nothing about someone being assaulted like this, and by someone as famous and popular as he has always been. But, just because one now comes forward, and that gives the others strength to come forward, you say they are all bimbos!

Had Lewinski actually accused him of rape, she probably could have made that charge stick given the fact she had the dress. With Willey and the others out there basically saying the same thing, he would likely have been impeached.

I’m pretty sure of that.

What I think is possible, what I believe, and what can be proven are wildly different things.

As far as whether I believe Willey or the others, I do. But the reason why is because of Lewinski.

I’ve been accused of infidelity before, by coworkers. There was LESS THAN NONE of that going on. Didn’t stop my VP from hauling me in and talking to me about it. Thank goodness I was working for a startup, and my wife knew me well enough to know I wouldn’t do that.

What you can prove and what you believe are very, very different things. To this day, there are qualified conservative jurists that will not countenance an invitation to join SCOTUS. Not after Thomas.

In a day and age where we are talking about putting women in submarines and forward deployed combat units, I know longer subscribe to the theory that victims are just too traumatized to come forward and file something if they have the goods on a rapist or abuser. You can pull hair out by the roots, you can document bruising, you can capture DNA under fingernails, you can wound a guy during fellatio.

Not a chance. Not even in the 1970s. Settling out of court for something you didn’t do? Ever worked for a manufacturing company or a city/county? It happens all the time. Sue a public figure with the threat of smearing their reputation, or settle out of court. That’s not an original idea.

So Clinton had an affair in the White House and that makes you believe a 1997 claim of a rape in 1978 from Juanita Broaddrick.

Bill Cosby does not deny having affairs and did have countless ones, even his bag man admits that, yet you won’t believe 20 accusers of rape, against him?
