84-year-old comedian Bill Cosby's civil lawsuit for an alleged sexual assault that happened in 1975 begins today...
From Daily Mail
Bill Cosby's latest sex assault civil trial will begin Wednesday following a Los Angeles woman's 2014 lawsuit claiming the disgraced comedian molested her when she was a teenager in the 1970s.
Judy Huth, 64, sued Cosby alleging that the former actor brought her to the Playboy Mansion and forced her to perform a sex act around 1975, when she was 16.
She is seeking unspecified damages for sexual battery and emotional distress.
In her lawsuit, Huth said she and a friend met Cosby at a film set at a park. She said Cosby invited the girls to meet him the following week, when he made Huth drink beer and molested her on a bed at the Los Angeles mansion.
The former actor will not attend the Santa Monica trial. Cosby's attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, said, 'We are confident that the evidence will discredit Plaintiff´s 50-year-old allegation.'
Another lawyer for Cosby confirmed he would not be present on Wednesday. His representatives say glaucoma has left him blind and made travel too difficult.
Gloria Allred, who represents Huth and has also handled several Jeffrey Epstein's victims, said her client will not comment on the case.
