So you don't think that someone willingly taking the drugs, not even knowing what they were taking, puts any responsibility on them?

He told some it was OTC cold medicine, they trusted him. Why would they think he would roofie them unless they had heard his Spanish fly routine?

Moving, several of them said that Cosby offered to help their careers to get them to his place. I can't help but think, given the reputation of the entertainment industry, that many of those women were willing to sleep with him, or maybe planned to. Especially that a number of them now claim multiple sessions, because they kept going back

It's sort of along the lines of leaving your house unlocked and having someone come in and steal your stuff. No one should be trying to steal your crap, but make sure your doors are locked...do what you can to prevent it. If you leave your car unlocked with the keys in it, don't be shocked that it's gone when you come out of Walmart.

No woman deserves to be sexually assaulted and shouldn't have to worry about that, but the reality is, once you lose control, anything can happen.

I find it hard to believe that none of them didn't suspect that he might be wanting to play footsies with them, right from the get go.

Plus, why would a 90 year old man covering for Cosby want 15 minutes of fame? And I find it VERY interesting that NONE of the women coming forward were black. Entertainment Tonight interview a young black woman who play his daughter on Ghost Daddy. Cosby was always respectful around her. Go figure!! Guess he had a thing for just white ladies. Wonder why? Did he think white women looked different naked or maybe enjoyed sex differently than black women???? Was white a fetish for him???? Just trying to put some reasoning to all of this. I grew up watching him. This is just amazing to me :( :( :( :(

A victim of rape is never to blame....especially if they were too drugged to say no in the first place.

It's the same old "he said .... they said" scenario but now the "they said" crowd is getting bigger by the hour. It's not looking good for Buffalo Bill.

Just what kind of evidence do you think they could have found in 1974, even if she reported it right after she woke up?

"Thanks to a comedian putting that in his act" reminds me that I get most of my news from comedians and I get my most of my comedy from news outlets.

No evidence??? how long afterwards did she actually report it???

one woman did go to the cops and press charges. The detective believed her, but found absolutely no evidence to prove her claim. Forensic science was almost non existent in the 70s, compared to now. They could type blood, identify semen, and collect fingerprints from smooth hard surfaces. And they had Mr Jello Pudding saying "she's lying". No DA would charge him

I never trusted a settlement that required silence from the payee. They always talk.
