WHAT'S IN YOUR CLOSET? THE BILL COSBY SETTLEMENT
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - A woman who said Bill Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her at his home outside Philadelphia, has settled her lawsuit against him.
Terms of the settlement will remain confidential, according to a one-paragraph statement released jointly by both sides.
The woman claimed that Cosby, 69, assaulted her at his mansion in Cheltenham in early 2004 after giving her pills. Attorneys for Cosby say the comedian gave the woman Benadryl allergy tablet after she complained of stress and sleeping problems.
The federal judge presiding over the case earlier denied Cosby's request for a gag order and the plaintiff's request to shield the names of a dozen other women who say Cosby assaulted them. Some of the accusations raised by the other women go back for decades, and none have pending lawsuits filed against him. Original Story
