This, I am afraid may be a true tipping point for many black folks. Beverly Johnson was one of the first black top fashion models in the 60’s. She was extremely famous back then. On the covers of Ebony, Jet, and other black periodicals. For her to say this, when she is already quite rich is stunning. It makes me sad.

The only way Bill Cosby can save some portion of his career is to own up to the crimes. America can be very forgiving to someone who admits their sin and appears to be sufficiently contrite. If he persists in this Royal Silence, the invitations to speak with him will sink very quickly. I think Cosby still believes he won’t have to face this head on by an admission. As this subterfuge has worked for him for the last, what? fifty years or so. If Cosby does simply sink and slink away into obscurity, one might expect that in the next two or three years, you will hear about the Cosby’s getting a divorce. This is too much. Some of these charges are probably true.

Beverly Johnson had what we called an “Exotic” look back then. Now I recognize that physique as similar to how Somalis are put together. I don’t know if that is her heritage or not.

Dude, this is beyond creepy. It's right up there with necrophilia, only necrophilia is less creepy.

Knowhutahmean?

I just had a thought. Wonder if he actually killed any women by ODing them?

No worries - Martin Singer prolly took care of any "inconvenient" corpses...
