Bill Cosby lost his latest bid to fend off a lawsuit accusing him of sexually abusing a 15-year-old girl at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles in 1974, as the California Supreme Court on Wednesday denied the comedian's petition to review the case.
The accuser's attorney, Gloria Allred, said the decision cleared the way for litigation brought by Judy Huth, now in her 50s, to proceed, and that she intended to take Cosby's sworn deposition within the next 30 days.
"We are looking forward to Mr. Cosby answering questions under oath at his deposition," Allred said. "It's a very big victory."
More than forty women have now accused Bill Cosby of sexually assaulting them.
Here is the story about Cosby's 2005 deposition where he admitted that he obtained drugs to use on young women, and here is a list of those who have come out publicly.
Personally I don't know if I will be able to watch his testimony.
Like I said I was once a huge fan, and even though I am more than convinced of his guilt, I think I will still have some difficulty watching him on the stand trying to justify what he did to these women, or deny that he did anything wrong at all.
However having said that if he loses this case I don't see how I could miss the opportunity to see somebody who did such terrible things face a little justice.
