Bill Cosby Accused Of Sex Abuse By 3 More Women

Cosby, 77, has never been charged over any of the allegations. He settled a 2005 civil suit alleging sexual misconduct.

THREE new women have publicly come forward with accusations that Bill Cosby sexually assaulted them decades ago.
Janice Baker Kinney, Marcella Tate and Autumn Burns said at a news conference hosted by celebrity attorney Gloria Allred that the comedian drugged and sexually assaulted them in separate incidents dating between 1970 and 1982.
They join more than three dozen women, many of whom are represented by Allred, who have made similar accusations in public over the past year.
Kinney said she met Cosby with a friend in May 1982, when she was 24, while working as a bartender in Reno.
She said she visited Cosby’s residence with her friend, where he gave her some pills. She said she later woke up naked, in bed with the star.
“I was mortified at what had happened. He came down and met me at the front door, and as he opened the door for me, he stopped it part of the way before I could get out, and he said these exact words: ‘this is between you and me,’ and he put his finger to his mouth like the ‘shhhh’ sign,” Ms Kinney said.
Cosby, 77, has never been charged over any of the allegations. He settled a 2005 civil suit alleging sexual misconduct.
Representatives for Cosby have not yet responded to requests for comment about the fresh claims.
Cosby’s attorney Marty Singer has previously dismissed similar allegations made by other women as “discredited” and “defamatory”.
Ms Burns said she met Cosby in 1970 at a Las Vegas casino in which she worked, aged 20.
She said she was invited up to his suite where he made her a drink, after which she felt “woozy and not in control”. She claimed the comedian then forced her into sex acts.
Ms Tate said she met the comedian in Chicago in 1975, when she was a 27-year-old model. She said he asked her to take him to the Playboy Mansion, where he offered her a drink that left her feeling drugged.
“I went in the living room, sat down, Mr Cosby brought me a drink, and that was my last clear memory,” she said.
“The next cloudy memory I have is that I was in a different room. I was in bed, Bill Cosby was next to me, and it didn’t appear that he was wearing anything. I knew I was in a sexual situation.”
The allegations have scuttled Cosby’s current television projects and led to cancellations of numerous stops on his live Far From Finished comedy tour which ends on 2 May. –Skynews.
