Lawyer: Cosby deposition lasted hours, 2nd will be sought

Early this year Linda Joy Traitz, Tamara Green and Therese Serignese had filed a suit against Bill accusing him of defaming them through his representatives in interviews that actually challenged their reputations and made them go through disgrace, aversion, ridicule and contempt.

Cosby’s fall from grace over the past year has been astounding as dozens of women have accused him of assaulting them, often saying their encounters with Cosby were decades ago and he drugged them.

In an opinion today, U.S. District Judge Mark Mastroianni rejects all of Cosby’s reasons to throw the lawsuit out at this juncture.

Huth says that she and a friend were in San Marino’s Lacy Park in 1974 when they wandered over to a movie set where Cosby was working. Cosby’s attorneys say these things never happened.

“Dateline NBC” aired a special Friday night in which 29 Cosby accusers were interviewed together about their allegations. She is one of several women who have filed lawsuits against him.

The women have accused Cosby of drugging them and then having unwanted sexual contact with them.

“Under California law, if the allegation is aggravated sexual assault, meaning a weapon is used, there is no statute of limitations”, said Christian Picone, a Bay Area attorney. “We’re using our voices to say this isn’t okay”.

As a result of his ruling, Cosby will have to face off against lawyer Gloria Allred in a deposition, the details of which won’t be released to the public until late December.

The case is not the only challenge facing Cosby.

Actress Lili Bernard, who claims she was drugged and raped by the comedian after appearing on The Cosby Show, said she also didn’t report Cosby because he allegedly threatened her. Though none of the women knew each other before they first came forward, all of them told similar stories about sexual abuse at the hands of one of America’s favorite TV dads.

Huth says she has repressed psychological injuries from the alleged incident that have only resurfaced in the last three years. “She doesn’t remember anything after that point until waking up with no clothes on, laying on her back in a bed”.

Attorney Gloria Allred makes a statement regarding Friday’s deposition of comedian Bill Cosby during a news conference at the Omni Parker House Hotel in Boston, Saturday, October 10, 2015.
