Bill Cosby Amends Rape Statement


On Sunday Bill Cosby's attorney released a statement regarding the multiple rape accusations lodged against the comedian over the years after a comedy bit by Hannibal Burruss sparked renewed interest [click here if you missed that].

The original statement has been amended to exclude a rape accuser who was paid off by Cosby in 2006…

The new statement reads as follows
Joint statement from Dolores Troiani, counsel to Andrea Constand, and John P. Schmitt, counsel to Bill Cosby.
The statement released by Mr. Cosby’s attorney over the weekend was not intended to refer in any way to Andrea Constand. As previously reported, differences between Mr. Cosby and Ms. Constand were resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Mr. Cosby and Ms. Constand years ago. Neither Mr. Cosby nor Ms. Constand intends to comment further on the matter.
