It's just sickening. On a much smaller scale...my parents were highly successful gospel musicians. They traveled all over. I was on many of their recordings. I met successful, artists, musicians. I sang beautifully too. My Dad was just this gifted artist. While being told how lucky I was, my father was molesting me. My mother beat and abused me. No one would have believed me. No one. It's awful to live in a prison. I'm 66. It still hurts. I cry with these women
Yes, that all is very true. With all the news and speculation about things in the last couple of years about the people that are on the front pages of the papers and online news I want to clarify that no one knows what goes on behind closed doors so I never judge because we'll never know the truth.
MAGA MTADTA No, they are not all nuts. But, Cosby is a sick person. When these allegations are made, people need to keep an open mind and step back from the celebrity and consider the facts and believe the women.
its the idolizing fans who are nuts..Have you ever seen the outbursts on american idol, from a wannabe star who gets rejected? they feel they are the best and have zero talent their reactions are downright mental cases...
The thing that gets me is you want to feel sympathy for him because of what happened to his son just like you wanted to feel sympathy for Roman Polanski because of what happened to his wife.... then they do this crap.
Frank De Tank Yes they are all being DONE by someone if they want to get ahead , Thats for sure - The black rappers are being sodiumised and the women Im sure are getting it every which way - This is the satanic Hollyweird for you . But a lot of people are not aware of this , They think Hollywood is all above board and normal .
maurel why is he is in jail for Life whether he even gets out or not he has paid a major prize long before he did the crime he paid dearly for a long time yes even if he is off scot-free he still has to pay multitude of ways
When he admitted giving those girls the drug Qualudes before he had sex with them, each and every one of them, he nailed his own future into prison. I never wanted to believe him guilty of such atrocities but it looks like he was guilty. Do you agree?
By late 1985, he had begun to regularly frequent the bathhouses, which he later described as being "relaxing places",[67] but during his sexual encounters, he became frustrated at his partners' moving during the sexual act. Following his arrest, he stated: "I trained myself to view people as objects of pleasure instead of people."[67] For this reason, from June 1986, he began to administer sleeping pills to his partners, to whom he would give liquor laced with the sedatives, then make sexual use of their unconscious bodies. Following approximately 12 such instances, Dahmer's membership at the bathhouses was revoked, and he began to use hotel rooms to continue this practice.[68] JEFFREY DAHMER
I am shocked by the amount of victim blaming in the comments. You should be ashamed. If you've never been raped or sexually assaulted and don't know the physical, psychological and emotional effects of it, then stfu.
Google User, I wish there were more youtube commenters like you. You are 100% right. It's shocking and infuriating that in the 21st century some people still have such an ignorant, medieval mindset.
I’m interested...given that he’s now been found guilty of three counts of sexual assault; and it was disclosed in court that he admitted his intention to use Quaaludes in order to have sex: is his wife still defending him? I wonder if it will take as long as Ruth Madoff to process the facts. But It’s incredibly sad on many levels. Not just for those poor women who were dismissed, blackballed and ignored for decades but for the people who believed in him, considered him a friend and for those who needed him to be their voice. America needed Cosby. This was a betrayal on a colossal scale.
Barbara talking about how her agent acted in this situation makes me think her agent was aware of Cosby's action but would either look the other way cause of how big Cosby was or was somehow involved with Cosby's activity.
Did Bowman say she didn't know if she was drugged? As a real rape victim who really WAS drugged, you'd know if you were drugged & raped afterward. Ppl close to you would've been aware of some change in you. Extreme depression from rape is not easy to hide. I was completely powerless. Not able to fight not able to barely move and I kept blacking out. It's been 10 years & my story is the same. This is strange.
MissDAdolph Don't necessarily agree with this statement seeing as how I too am a rape victim and my own mother didn't know-see changes in me and she was just right across the hall when my ex raped me inside of our own home.
It depends. I didn't tell when it happened to me because I was being abused at home too. There was no one to tell. You can mentally block things out for years too. There has to be someone, somewhere who believes in you. My father was a highly regarded minister and successful gospel/country music artist. My mother too. No one would have believed me.
I'm still lost and don't understand one of the girls said she kept going back to him for acting after he raped Her why would you keep going back over to his house and get raped again if someone sexually assaulted me and raped me you're not going to catch me back around them over and over again someone please correct me if I'm wrong I don't understand some of these allegations
I would love to see the Clinton's taken down. But considering that damn near everyone set to testify against them ends up mysteriously dead before trial, it would be unlikely...
modelingbritt When was this rape case? Are you talking about a criminal trial? Because there's no way anyone prosecuted for rape would have ever been elected to any level of government. Even if they were acquitted. Also a toxicology test / drug screen may or may not be done upon death. I used to be a research pharmacologist myself, and I'm now a medical student. I used to know a few medical toxicologists. The law differs from state to state but generally a tox screen would only usually be demanded by the coroner. If the attending physician ascertains that a person has died of a heart attack, then they will discern the source of that cardiac failure. There are LOTS of cardiopulmonary pathologies that fall under the auspices of a heart attack. Eg if the person has CHD, then eventual cardiomyopathy or infarct will result. No need for a tox screen there. The death certificate (documented cause of death) needs to be very specific and accord with diseases categorised with ICD10 codes. You can't just write "heart attack" on a death certificate. Nonetheless, it would be a huge waste of time, money, and would extend the grief of the family of the deceased, if every physician ordered a tox screen before filing the death certificate. Specificity and accuracy regarding CoD is necessary for medical records and tracking disease patterns for public health, so we know for instance, about spikes in causes of death. Or about emerging diseases. Anyway I apologise for my digression. I don't follow politics to closely but Bill Clinton always seemed like an alright guy to me. I'm not American but from what I saw he came off as relaxed, seemed smart, seemed to know what he was doing. No Iraq style invasions with thousands of American and NATO deaths. Good economy. Peace and prosperity. The only thing I didn't like was Waco. I think Ruby Ridge happened under George HW Bush. But you're seriously calling Bill Clinton a murderer and a rapist? And Hillary too? Why? I know I might sound a bit ignorant, again I don't spend much time reading about politics and following all the attacks and stories and reading all the books etc (my brother does, as he's really into politics). But I have to say, and I don't want to be rude here, but it sounds a little, well, strange to assert yourself in a way that you're describing a former President like he's a gang member or crime boss. Isn't that a bit bizarre to make such claims? Why wouldn't he be a pariah and imprisoned, and why wouldn't everyone know about these crimes if they were true? Surely they'd be huge news and reported all over the world
I absolutely LOVED Bill Cosby for decades and listened to vinyl records of his fabulous early comedy. But I do not KNOW him, and most folks who insist he could never be a rapist do not know him either. Believe the scores of women who have come forward all with similar stories. The women who say he was never inappropriate with them were either not his type or a little higher on the “power” scale, so they were not to be messed with.
Darren Dyke The media is hurling McCarthyistic assaults at Bill Cosby while being silent on Bill Clinton, whose alleged sexual assault history is as follows: Juanita Broaddrick - said that she was raped by Clinton. Eileen Wellstone - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Carolyn Moffet - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Elizabeth Ward, Miss America 1982 - said she was raped by Clinton. Sandra Allen James - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Christy Zercher - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Kathleen Willey - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. 22-year old Yale student (unidentified) - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Female student at University of Arkansas (unidentified) - said that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton. Why are the people who profess to assault Cosby out of a concern for alleged victims silent on Clinton? The media's “concern” for alleged sexual assault victims is not victim-based, but accused-based. That is their concern is contingent upon who is accused. Source: Bill Clinton’s long history of sexual violence. By Daniel J. Harris and Teresa Hampton. June 21, 2004. Capitol Hill Blue.
JugglingFor ACure So say everything about Clinton is true as well. Should we not chase Bill Cosby for it? It's awful if more people were at it but every single claim should be followed up. Hopefully everyone will get there day but Cosby is as guilty as hell. This momentum needs to be kept up.
Randy Jones You assume people would want everyone to know they were raped at the time ... shame .. embarassment .. the fact he was very powerful at the time.
When women don't report assaults right away they are called ridiculous (why didn't they report earlier, they say). When they do report, they are called ridiculous. Does anybody know when is the perfect time to report it?
When the victim is mentally prepared to report. I know a person who waited 2 months (actually, a fairly short amount of time). This was out of fear of retaliation, severe depression and...thinking she wouldn't be believed by police or others. And she wasn't dealing with a famous multi millionaire - just an average guy. One thing I will say, NEVER push someone who confides in you to go to the police when they're not emotionally or mentally prepared because they ask all sorts of questions that, while they're trained and being sensitive to the victim, can be humiliating and feel shameful. Encourage but don't push.
Bud - In America EVERYTHING when historically Blackmen have been lynched on lies told by white females and believed or acted on by white males.What difference does separate but equal have to do with color?What difference does color have to do with a nation(America)which practices racial discrimination by LAW;making a CONSCIOUS DECISION to murder brown people(Hiroshima,Nagasaki)in mass and not do likewise to SATAN Himself,white ,Christian,aryan, superman, Hitler's Germany...??What difference does color matter when America invades Panama and tries new,stealth weapons,bombers murdering thousands of Afropanamanians and IndigenousPanamanians(Blacks,Browns) before the Gulf war??
modelingbritt What about gun holdup victims?Do they get a pass because of the mental anguish ,and the perpetrators know my residence, and work address;so out of fear ;I'll wait say one year ,to get my composure because no one will believe a wealthy person would participate in a street crime against poor old me??The longer you wait to report ANY CRIME,the evedentiary trail becomes colder,memories fail,witnesses die,and lies are more likely to be told.....
reading these comments made me so mad. there is so many people that do not know what rape is. many people seem to think its no big deal or they are rape apologists.
Madeline Charles Thank you for pointing this out. There is so much trauma that goes on, it is hard to understand unless it happened to you. We need to believe the women.
I have so much respect for Barbara because she was the very first to go public on her sexual assaults by Bill Cosby and that took a lot of courage. This issue on sexual crimes goes far beyond Cosby because it is something that is happening everyday in every country. I really thank these brave women for putting this issue at the forefront so we can all end rape culture here in America and around the world. We should create a supportive environment for victims, whether male or female, so where they aren't blamed or shamed because of their sexual assault. This is a horrific issue that is happening in our homes, workplaces, schools, prisons etc. We have to look out for predatory behaviors and catch the warning signs. Attackers have got to be held accountable. Every attacker we hold socially and legally accountable protects every man, woman and child.
+ch70 Quaaludes can render one helpless. How do you know what the dose was? One pill doesn't tell us that. One pill of what dose? Some were drinking wine (oh what terrible women - - - they were drinking wine) and to mix drugs with wine, determines an entirely different outcome of affects. Poor Bill, how can he get a fair trial? What a crock!
***** This Bill Cosby scandal has shown me and should show many the incredible amount of sexism and misogyny in our culture. First of all you are basically saying we should believe one man over 60 different women. All their stories are vetted and they all have similar stories. Many of these women did tell their agents, lawyers etc but they weren't believe and many were afraid to go against a powerful, rich and famous man. Most of these women have NOTHING to gain coming forward with something so horrific happening to them. Silence is the norm on sexual violence cases. 80% of rape cases go UNreported and only 2% of rapists go to jail. You don't believe me? Look it up yourself on the Department of Justice website. Those drugs Bill use are sleeping pills and can render a person unconscious. He also admitted he didn't take them himself. So basically he is admitting these women version of the facts. Lastly in the deposition he admitted he sought out young " vulnerable' women, who were not doing well financially and out of town? Why?? Because just like any other sexual predator he knew how to pick his victims. How many more women does it take? 100? 200? 300?
Rosemarie Faye This Bill Cosby case has expose to me an incredible amount of sexism, victim blaming and shaming. We definitely have a rape culture in America and we have to fix it!
OJ beat the murder rap didn't he? Even when everyone (media included of course) thought he was guilty. He was a famous black man. And many people still think he did it He's even committed crimes since. Point is, its not like every famous black dude just gets framed at the end of their career
In raping these women that trusted him he raped everyone's trust in him. He destroyed his relationship with everyone who enjoyed and admired his work. He betrayed the black people by destroying himself as a role model. He used his power to cover up his misdeeds. I choosing my words carefully because there may be children reading this. I admired Bill from his I Spy days and his Fat Albert show. His televised standup about his parents and his brother and how tough his father was. He gave us a wonderful view of his childhood and helped us (white people) who were never exposed to the black community to understand them as normal families who face normal family issues. He helped us (white people) to understand many of the problems that black people face using common language and not political language. Now this is destroyed. All of that, he tore it all down.
Not to say rape is OK....lets not overlook these women using their attractiveness as currency to get close to a celebrity or go up the ladder. If he raped them he is scum, but let's not make these women out to be saints.
Trev Mac you mean pointing out the reality of girls in Hollywood sleeping around to further their careers? You're right...shame on me. That doesn't exist at all. They're all virgins :)
+Kello Bello It doesn't matter if the women are saints or not! What does it matter what they are! They were raped. Someone took control of their body against their will. What is it that you're not understanding?
But actually, not really shocking at all because, as Lord Acton once said, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely,” and research (and fucking Bill Cosby and other persons in powerful positions who end up being proved serial rapists and predators) shows that power without plenty of checks and balances is a very very scarily misused force.
+Aaron Valdes good question and be interesting to know the answer. if so i wonder if they were threatened into abortions or just paid off? most likely the first so they couldnt' come back in later years and claim to have a kid by him and want his money. pretty obvious he didn't use a condom since many said they just remember waking up and being wet and dirty down there so be hard to think at least one wouldn't have gotten pregnant at some point.
Who else finds it hard to believe that that many women would be alright sitting in silence after being raped by an old man for literally decades for like half those women, I mean like if they were drugged then it would be in their blood and his DNA would probably still be on them, I mean like it's not right that, but this still leaves me with questions as to what these women were doing that was so important that they didn't immediately get a court order and put him away.
+RoMe DS consentual. I am having trouble believing these women.. ESPECIALLY now that I know for a fact at least some of them lied and had their testimonies thrown out.
RoMe DS They were having fun,consensual sex,getting high,and having the Black experience.Like with OJ;the claim by the Browns that OJ abused his wife and could murder her was OK;as long as he kept giving the family MONEY...
I find it incredible that so many women are coming out, and other women do not believe them. Now you know why so many women are raped and never report it.
That first accuser was super hot when she was a kid and she's still super bomb. Nothing that has anything to do with anything I'm just saying she really looks good
I think the abudance of this type of sexual predatory behavior is rampant in hollywood. Bill is one of the few caught with his pants down. I think wed be shocked at who else is grossly exercising this type of misuse of power. What a slap in the face to his family and wife .
You mean that people that are rich, famous and powerful do not attract women, they need to trap them? How many women would marry or have sex below their level?
Do you mean that because you enthusiastically watched the Cosby Show or were a fan of him, that your life was just as seriously impacted as the actual victims of his grooming/drugging/sexual assault? No offense, but you are completely and egregiously wrong
Phylissia Rashad.....she was vocal about these victims being on the make etc etc. I wonder if she will ever be able to concede that (by his own admission) he did in fact drug women to have sex with them. She was a loyal friend☹️.
the searching wind Now he probably did it to one or two. and he should not be punished as these women had their chance and its simply too late. and the rest of these women are just looking for attention.
+Sisi S In American jurisprudence, a felony must be proved BEYOND ALL REASONABLE doubt. So, a felony is not a felony just because someone accuses. What is hopeful in this sordid affair is that Cosby's attorneys are skilled, like the late Johnny Cochran, in cross examination. There are several parts of the accusations being hurled towards Cosby that need skillful cross examination. Because there's more to these matters than meets the eye. After all, the entertainment world can never, ever be considered la la land!
+Soopersil3ntassasin If he only did it to one and I'm sure there were a lot more, he should pay. He is paying with his reputation. I doubt if these women are looking for the kind of attention they're getting.
The agent should have gone to prison too, she knew what I was going on from the get go ..why didn't she just call for help.omg the poor girl had no choice..that pervert serial rapist..he got what he deserved..
Noone can make all this, come on how do it takes to make up a LIE not long. These women's knew exactly what they were doing. All these women's were having an affair with BILL COSBY. And then these women's wanted money and all they got was a pill lol
i dont understand how a man can "force" you to perform oral sex on him...yea right, dont get me wrong im not victim blaming , but dammit i call bullshit on that,
it hard to figure out how a male sexual asaulter would force a victim to suck his dick, putting the safety of his dick in danger, by putting it in a victim mouth.. of all the sexual acts,oral sex is a variation of sex where both parties have trust so great that one party is willing to put his delicate member into another individuals mouth, oral sex can only be performed with consent of both sucker and suckee
***** did she mention that billy here threaten to "do it or she is dead"? stop your bullshit and be fucking honest with yourself. did billy have sex with these women,? yes he probably did. Was it consensual? fuck yea it was. do you know what it was like in the 70s for a woman to come out and claim being raped by a successful , well known black man?. .
Suggesting that ALL the women are lying is just as ridiculous as saying they're ALL telling the truth. It is entirely possible that some of these women are lying. Even if just a little bit. With that in mind, it would be illogical to believe that NONE of the allegations are true. Even if just a little bit.
Adults can be groomed too. If someone says they can take away everything you've worked so hard for, and gaslights you it's very possible to groom an adult. There are reasons people can return to their rapist, esp when drugs are involved.
modelingbritt I haven't been following it that closely ( Im in Australia) but weren't a lot of these woman wanting to further there careers, Or get a position on his lame sitcom ?
I am unfamiliar with the work of Mr Cosby but I am aware of allegations of sexual assault against him. This is the problem America has with freedom of speech - it seems you can say what you like about anybody with no consequences - in any sensible country - like the UK for instance - these things should come out in court rather than in the media - a court is more likely to ensure fair-play. The piece we see here is far from being fair and balanced - and it's cheap journalism too. I understand he intends to bring legal case against some of his accusers - I also understand that some accusers came back for a repeat performance.
***** He would do well to bring his legal case to England - he might get an easier ride if you forgive my pun... But you make a good point and at the same time miss an even better point.... Why is he not considering a law suit against all his accusers? Perhaps in some cases he's as guilty as they allege?
Is anyone on this thread beside me a victim of rape. Question for you. Did people pretty quickly after your rape notice your behavior change/mood/depression/lack of speaking/indifferent/paranoia/etc...? I went from a people person to partially mute and a introvert unlike anything ppl were use to. It was extremely hard for me to hide my rape. What's your thoughts? (only rape/molestation victims please)
+Oogly Boogly Boo But you said you know he didn't do it. There is a diffrence in saying that something is unknowable because there us no proof; and saying it definitely did not happen. There are thousands upon thousands of murders unsolved because there is no proof. But you can't say it did not happen. How do you know it absolutely did not happen? That all 60+ women are lying?
+Oogly Boogly Boo I understand what you're saying and yes, in the eyes of the law he is innocent. But you can't say he is truly innocent, that he never raped anyone unless you were there when each incident took place. Also, he admitted in court he drugged women. What a coincidence. We need to find a new person to admire.
"Barbara Bowman had what it took to be a star." No she didn't. If she actually had the talent to be a star then she would have become one. I have known artists who told me utterly incredible stories of the adversities they endured in their quest to become a "star." Most of the stories I was told were A LOT more challenging than what she experienced with Cosby. What Bowman actually is: a minimally talented quitter.
Wow. She was young and experienced trauma that changed her behavior. Grown women buckle after they go through this. We'll never know how talented she was because she didn't get to experience success
You hate Taylor don't you? Kanye is a jerk (whatever the smart president Trump, for whom I voted, see in him is a conundrum). Oh yeah. he's black. See ya.
I had a bill cosby app...deleted. I had liked and followed him on facebook...unlinked and unfollowed. I had some of his dvds of the cosby show...either scratched up or thrown away.
For the longest time, Bill C paints himself as an 'Academic', but he is nowhere near the intellect level of Dr. Martin Luther King, Maya Angelou even Barack. It seems like a facade.
Why doesn't Cosby sue the comedian who called him a 'rapist' on his shows??? It is because he knows he would not win! Now wouldn't any innocent person sue for slander if someone publicly, repeatedly called him a 'rapist'? Proof of his guilt right there!
+Willy Durf this has NOTHING to do with money. it has been stated over and over by police that these women can't sue him and they can't file charges against him because the statute of limitations has run out so they can't get a dime. so it isn't money grabbing crap cause they can't get a dime. it is about finally exposing the truth about an evil sick man who used his power, influence and money for far too long to get away with criminal activity and because of his reputation and his great acting skills in making the public and sheep like u believe he was a decent person no one would believe them years ago when they tried to come forward and tell. rich ppl can afford powerful attorneys to silence what they want silenced, pay off others, and buy judges even. this subject wasn't talked about back then like it is now either but tell me how many young inexperienced women trying to get started in a career are going to feel able to take on the huge and great bill cosby back in the 60's. 70's and 80's.
So lets just destroy an Man that has done so much good for so many because he screwed up a few times. He admitted it. Done. Just get over it and move on. Stop the hate and let him deal with as he sees fit.
omg u are unbelievable. yes he has done a great deal of good for tv and for black ppl on television. however,WE aren't destroying a man, HE destroyed himself with his decisions to do criminal acts against women. and screwed up a few times? my god man 40 women isn't a few times and how many others haven't even come forward yet and could be out there. rape is a violent act of control not sex and just because he admitted it doesn't mean he gets to just walk away and say well i admitted it so done let's forget about it now. if someone walked into your house and shot your mother or wife or child, the police caught him because u came forward and said u saw him do it and he admitted it, would u then just let him walk away scot free? i don't think so. I don't think u would forget it and move on and obviously this has had lifelong repercussions for all these women and they haven't been able to just "let it go and move on" either because he hasn't faced any consequences for his actions.
Comedian Tommy Smothers has said Cosby is a "great comedian" and an "asshole," who sucker-punched him in the late '70s. "He didn't have the balls to do it when I was looking." Robert Culp gave Cosby his biggest break. Culp's friend Dick Delson says Cosby is a "jerk" who initially refused to attend Culp's funeral, then attended but didn't speak. Lisa Bonet has said Cosby said to her in his dressing room: "Lisa, this is called 'The Cosby Show,’ and I know how this business works. I know that you kids can be erased just like that." During the same show, Cosby grabbed a cameraman he thought was doing a bad job, prompting Phylicia Rashad's real-life husband to step in the middle of them. Reportedly in 1989 the _National Enquirer_ planned to do a story about Cosby cheating on his wife, and Cosby made that go away by giving the paper a story about his own daughter Erinn's drug problems instead (published in October 1989). Comedian D.L. Hughley has said Cosby was recording an interview for radio in 2009 and "was being such a dick... So I say, 'Mr. Cosby, what do you want us to know?' He said, 'Who is this? D.L. Hughley? You say nigga and you do this.' And I say, 'With all due respect Mr. Cosby, when I cuss or I say nigga, no girl ends up with her underwear on backwards and drugged.'[...] True story. He says, 'This is not gonna air.' I say 'The fuck it ain't.' ... Five to ten minutes later, the people from Kiss FM and Emmis Communications came down, took that tape and said, 'If it airs, you'll never work in radio again.' They took it from everybody and said this better never air and it did not... So I know he's powerful enough to make that happen.... People only hear what they want to hear."
I 100% agree what he did was wrong but for these women to say nothing for all these years is also part of the problem. To stop the predator when he's blind in his mid 80s does nothing for justice
Wow. I love what Rishad said ".... he's generous..." -- that's what BC wants everyone to think about him when he's everything but generous. He is very successful and he knows the power he has; cast or not cast the actress. He's going to make them work and beg for the part... literally. I wonder how many actresses he cast in his projects where he got what he wanted from them first. I wonder how many actresses he abused that we don't know about.
@@harrietthespy2119 Wow, a response to an old comment. I think that he couldn't abuse people that were regular cast members because that would be too risky to be found out. I think that he abused people that were not regular cast members; I don't think that BC would want to see the faces of the people he raped every day. A good cast is hard to find and his show was a hit so abusing a cast member would be too risky for him and the life of his show.
It depends on the intent. If he was giving her drugs and telling her they're something they aren't its just the same as drugging her. He's using her trust in him to his advantage. Its not like he was giving her something to get high (even if thats what she thought it was for) instead according to the allegations he gave the women a drug that would either make them black out or make their memory fuzzy.
Well that's where going to the Dr would come into play. The fact that these women say They were drugged but didn't go to the doctor, leaves room for reasonable doubt!
+neetrab depending on the drug, going to the dr wont prove anything. its out of your system before they would do lab test. Also she probably would have difficulty convincing a dr to do a test like that. just bec you walk in and say test me doesn't mean they'll do it. Its prob out of ur system by now they'd say if you were drugged.
Cléo Z Called actress wanabees and Adult Consent. How many 18 and 19 year old teen girls did the Beatles, Rolling Stones etc. bed down. The something in their pudding was called groupies exercising Adult Consent. Take it from accuser Bowman who freely admits: He was a pot of gold and I needed to take good care of it (him).' and also tells us: Barbara said there were times she'd push him away, but then she'd give in. I was special, with something unique that other aspiring actresses didn't have. I had a false sense of superiority. I felt that I was the chosen one. No cattle calls or paying dues or groveling for jobs. I had the biggest connection ever.
Still so crazy to me i never would have thought someone like bill cosby would do shit like this he deserves all the punishment he could get thats just sick this dude used to be someone you loved and adored and deep down he was a sick bastard smh
Ok, so she claims he drugged and assaulted her. Yet she went to see him again. Where she claims he assaulted her, yet again. And she never filed a police report? the only thing adding up is her obvious pursuit of fame and money.
Where was her mother during this time? Didn't she call her mother and tell her what was going on? I do not doubt her at all, I just think I would have called home for help. This situation just shows you that you cannot trust ANYONE. You have to take precautions every day of your life to try and stay safe. The problem with all this silence over the years is that other women trusted him also and were victimized. I don't think there is any way his wife could have not known there was something going on. She is evil for keeping quiet about it, so he could continue to rape women. Just absolutely horrible and mind boggling.
Marguerite Farrell You don't know black women. A black woman would not keep silent. I am a black man so therefore I know. I wouldn't do what they said Bill Cosby did but I know my wife would not remain silent for 30yrs.
Marguerite Farrell I am saying that a black woman would not keep silent. She would have divorced him... called all the tv news stations because we are more vocal about our problems than any other ethnic group. If you knew your husband (if you are married) was having an affair what would you do? Would you keep quiet and hope that he stops his infidelity? Would you blow the whistle on him?
Marguerite Farrell again I ask, why wait 30 plus years to come out with something like this? Why not come out back in his younger years when he was worth more? This man is 70 yrs old. It just don't make sense to me.
Marguerite Farrell Why is it easy to believe the women? Do women lie? or Are men the only liars in the human race? I know all of their stories are the same but thats not reason enough for me. Kobe Bryant was accused of rape until they found semen from other men inside her. There are a lot of men in jail due to false accusations by women. Matthew Winkler was the predator and Mary Winkler was the victim. They found out the truth but He is dead.
I'm young, fresh, beautiful, exciting and talented. It's always been my dream to be a big movie star...so I thought, 'I'm moving to where the action is... DENVER!'
he is very talented but many people that are creative have dark sides. what is despicable is he created an on and off air persona where he made consistent moral judgments on society.
these women's story can strengthen others who have had different types of abuses! it teaches them to stand strong and justice may come in the end! it can even strengthen men who have been abused and help them to speak out!
