Three More Women Accuse Cosby
Three more women have come forward, this time represented by attorney Gloria Allred.

[su_thin_right_skyscraper_ad]Appearing Wednesday at a press conference with lawyer Gloria Allred, two said the fallen funnyman spiked their drinks and accosted them in Las Vegas in the early 1980s, while the third – a former assistant to Cosby’s late agent at William Morris – claimed Cosby drugged her at the Bel Air hotel.
The assistant, identified only by the name Kacey, said she considered Cosby a father figure for most of their working relationship between 1990 and 1996.
She said things turned freaky when Cosby invited her to his home to read a script for a possible part on his hit NBC sitcom – a script that ended with a “passionate kiss.”…
Alleged victim Linda Kirkpatrick [pictured] said she was 25 in 1981 when she played against Cosby in a Las Vegas tennis tournament and got an invitation to his casino comedy show.
She said Cosby fed her a clear drink in a champagne glass with red fruit at the bottom that tasted so “terrible” so she only finished half.
Kirkpatrick said she blacked out for most of Cosby’s stage show and woke up back in Cosby’s dressing room alone with the comedian…
The third alleged victim, identified as Lynn Neal, said she was in her mid-20s when she got to know Cosby while working in a Las Vegas health club.
She said Cosby took her to a restaurant after inviting her to his Hilton show one night in 1982 or 1983 and ordered her a shot of vodka.
She said she tried to eat off his plate of collard greens but was told there wasn’t time for her to eat too, only drink.
“By the time we walked back to his dressing room, I was having problems walking,” she said. “When we entered the dressing room, I sat on the couch and he started taking my pants down. I said, ‘What are you doing? Stop!’ But he didn’t, and I was weak,” she recalled.

So, Phylicia Rashad is the only woman he never date raped?

and Keshia Knight Pulliam, whom I feel bad for.

I can understand the mindset of people like Mrs. Rashad and others who choose to stand by an old friend, regardless of the wrong they have done. I think we all have people in our lives to whom we would offer at least moral support even if they were accused of serious crimes
What I do not understand is her denial that these women should be “ignored”. Exactly how many new complaints must surface before she admits to herself that Cosby is not the saint that she remembers working with?

The only issue I have is the women hiring Gloria Alred (?) as their attorney/PR person. Yes, she can get the issue into the spotlight, but that’s because she’s an camera chaser who has lost a lot of respect. I’m not discounting the accusers in any way or saying that because they chose Gloria that they are lying, but others will and are. Gloria brings a taint.

If you had been drugged and raped by Bill Cosby…
Who would you choose as an attorney to represent you?..(so as not to have a “taint”)

Like I said, I realize that she can bring a lot of spotlight (some good, some bad) to the situation and I’m certainly not saying any of these women are lying. There’s just something about Gloria Alred that, imho, is ambulance chasing.
Maybe she does these things pro-bono and that could be helpful to the women she represents.
As for an attorney to choose, it’s not like I have an attorney directory so that I cannot answer.
Just my opinion.

I could dismiss a few allegations of date rape…(even that is a few more than should be dismissed)
But not over 20-25..
Anyone that believes there is nothing to this, is in denial and needs to have their heads examined.
