Camille left out the part about Cosby using drugs before raping women...a bit different than consensual sex between two adults.

There are a few women out there that may have a different view than the Crankcase on what constitutes consent.

Eileen Wellstone, 19-year-old English woman who said Clinton sexually assaulted her after she met him at a pub near the Oxford where the future President was a student in 1969. A retired State Department employee, who asked not to be identified, confirmed that he spoke with the family of the girl and filed a report with his superiors. Clinton admitted having sex with the girl, but claimed it was consensual. The victim's family declined to pursue the case;
•In 1972, a 22-year-old woman told campus police at Yale University that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton, a law student at the college. No charges were filed, but retired campus policemen contacted by Capitol Hill Blue confirmed the incident. The woman, tracked down by Capitol Hill Blue last week, confirmed the incident, but declined to discuss it further and would not give permission to use her name;
•In 1974, a female student at the University of Arkansas complained that then-law school instructor Bill Clinton tried to prevent her from leaving his office during a conference. She said he groped her and forced his hand inside her blouse. She complained to her faculty advisor who confronted Clinton, but Clinton claimed the student ''came on'' to him. The student left the school shortly after the incident. Reached at her home in Texas, the former student confirmed the incident, but declined to go on the record with her account. Several former students at the University have confirmed the incident in confidential interviews and said there were other reports of Clinton attempting to force himself on female students;
•Broaddrick, a volunteer in Clinton's gubernatorial campaign, said he raped her in 1978. Mrs. Broaddrick suffered a bruised and torn lip, which she said she suffered when Clinton bit her during the rape;
•From 1978-1980, during Clinton's first term as governor of Arkansas, state troopers assigned to protect the governor were aware of at least seven complaints from women who said Clinton forced, or attempted to force, himself on them sexually. One retired state trooper said in an interview that the common joke among those assigned to protect Clinton was "who's next?". One former state trooper said other troopers would often escort women to the governor's hotel room after political events, often more than one an evening;
•Carolyn Moffet, a legal secretary in Little Rock in 1979, said she met then-governor Clinton at a political fundraiser and shortly thereafter received an invitation to meet the governor in his hotel room. "I was escorted there by a state trooper. When I went in, he was sitting on a couch, wearing only an undershirt. He pointed at his penis and told me to suck it. I told him I didn't even do that for my boyfriend and he got mad, grabbed my head and shoved it into his lap. I pulled away from him and ran out of the room."
•Elizabeth Ward, the Miss Arkansas who won the Miss America crown in 1982, told friends she was forced by Clinton to have sex with him shortly after she won her state crown. Last year, Ward, who is now married with the last name of Gracen (from her first marriage), told an interviewer she did have sex with Clinton but said it was consensual. Close friends of Ward, however, say she still maintains privately that Clinton forced himself on her.
•Paula Corbin, an Arkansas state worker, filed a sexual harassment case against Clinton after an encounter in a Little Rock hotel room where the then-governor exposed himself and demanded oral sex. Clinton settled the case with Jones recently with an $850,000 cash payment.
•Sandra Allen James, a former Washington, DC, political fundraiser says Presidential candidate-to-be Clinton invited her to his hotel room during a political trip to the nation's capital in 1991, pinned her against the wall and stuck his hand up her dress. She says she screamed loud enough for the Arkansas State Trooper stationed outside the hotel suite to bang on the door and ask if everything was all right, at which point Clinton released her and she fled the room. When she reported the incident to her boss, he advised her to keep her mouth shut if she wanted to keep working. Miss James has since married and left Washington. Reached at her home last week, the former Miss James said she later learned that other women suffered the same fate at Clinton's hands when he was in Washington during his Presidential run.
•Christy Zercher, a flight attendant on Clinton's leased campaign plane in 1992, says Presidential candidate Clinton exposed himself to her, grabbed her breasts and made explicit remarks about oral sex. A video shot on board the plane by ABC News shows an obviously inebriated Clinton with his hand between another young flight attendant's legs. Zercher said later in an interview that White House attorney Bruce Lindsey tried to pressure her into not going public about the assault.
•Kathleen Willey, a White House volunteer, reported that Clinton grabbed her, fondled her breast and pressed her hand against his genitals during an Oval Office meeting in November, 1993. Willey, who told her story in a 60 Minutes interview, became a target of a White House-directed smear campaign after she went public.

Wait a minute, did Trump do Cosby or did Cosby do Trump?

Did they do a like-kind exchange on the hush money that went back and forth between them?

B-dump-ump-ump.

This all came out last November, such a short time back.

Yeah, he was around for quite a while, but did his blackness or his longevity save him?

The story is still alive, regrettably, and please, I'm just the messenger.

Barely made it inside the 12 year statute of limitations.

When he does stand-up in the big house he better kill it or they will kill him.



I hope when they bend him over in the shower that they don't drug him first.

Like about everyone, I use to have so much respect and good feelings about Cos. I know that there are mean evil motherf*rs out there, met and deal out a few personally. But Cosby was one of the good guys, not just a good guy, but the best of the best. ..it just hurts to see this kind of terrible thing crop up. I hate to say it, but the evidence presented in the news rags appears near overwhelming to me. I often don't believe what they say as they need to manipulate us so that they can make a buck, but there are too many decent women who have stepped up and spoken out. I try and wait till the justice system has done it's thing, but in this instance, over 40 women have stepped up. I feel that the truth in this instance is out there, and its a horrible thing as I think we are seeing it. I feel for those women.






Now, is this Medusa in the photo below or what?

Smells a bit of gold digging if you ask me particularly in light of his fantastic successes in two modes, (1) fame and (2) fortune. I bet there were a lot of chicks that tried and probably succeeded in getting the Coz Hammer to throw down. Did he take advantage of that, probably yes and to a great extent. And how many of these chicks are looking for a payout now that life has passed them by or is at least leaving the station?

I think this stuff needs to be added into the equation. Then add in that many of these accusations can't even be anchored by a filed complaint anywhere in the past. Hmmm....

So your SPECULATION should be given the same weight as testimony under oath?
As evidence collected by police?
By incriminating statements by the defendant?

A heavy dose of reality to find a lionized persona has an evil hobby.

Makes you wonder about everybody.

All this because she went for one MC ride? Lovely Rita



Bill Cosby attorney:

"I expect now that all of those things will get ferreted out in a court of law and I have faith in the justice system,"

but just in case we'll attempt to try it in the press.
