That state’s quirky SOL Statute says that suit may be filed within 3 years of “discovering” psychological damages.
Cosby’s attorney is saying the SOL began running 9 years ago when she tried unsuccessfully to sell her “story.” I believe he is right.
He’s absolutely right on that. If she tried to sell her story 9 years ago then how can she claim she didn’t know she had a story until now?
And if he can prove that she tried to sell the story 9 years ago then he has effectively proven that she PERJURED HERSELF in the very act of filing this claim. That blows away her credibility and establishes that there is an extra-legal motive for the claim. The fact that she had tried to make a money deal rather than pursuing prosecution while the SOL still allowed strongly suggests that the motive is money, not “justice”.
“I believe he is right.”
Yes, that will be hard to overcome. They might just be looking for a settlement. How rich is Bill Cosby, anyway?
I saw one lawyer wants him to put up $100 million dollars (say it in the Dr. Evil voice!) and have a “special master” dole it out.
You think he’s got that kind of dough?
