Bill Cosby’s fall from grace after mass accusations of sexual harassment and rape has caused quite a shock and stir. His family friendly image was totally torn down and now he is fighting back.
One of the most vocal accusations has been from model Beverly Johnson. She claims Cosby drugged and tried to sexually assault her in the 1980s. Bill Cosby denies this and is now suing her for defamation.
Interestingly this is the first suit Cosby has fired against someone who has not already sued him.
Cosby’s suit claims the story has been created by Johnson to revive her career. She claims Cosby drugged her with a Capuccino and tried to make sexual advances to her. She says she angrily refused.
Cosby says he never spent time alone with the model and the claims are bogus.
He also has counter-claims against seven other woman who have filed suits against him.
This whole situation is a mess and it’s tough to know if he really is in the midst of a conspiracy by these women or if he is the predator they claim. Of course their claims need to be taken seriously ut hopefully the courts can get to the bottom of the matter.
