I guess that implies that the others are telling the truth?

It is a he said/she said situation after all

Raping someone and then suing them is a sadistic 1-2 combo.

Wouldn't be surprised if the case is strong. People forget dates and events from that long ago and get them mixed up.

Probably has his lawyers coming through records to find small inconsistencies, along with general evidence of "they were irresponsible, sexually promiscuous drug users"

If he wins or manages to drag these women through court to any significant degree it would be a horrendous miscarriage of justice.

Everybody already knows he's a serial rapist by now. I guess he must be getting some kind of weird satisfaction out of suing, whatever. Kinda sucks for the women.

If he sues and wins, even on something that doesn't contradict the original accusations; it muddies the waters enough to allow people to pretend he's innocent if they want to.

It's really not that bad, he's just counter suing the women who have already filed suit against him.

Quote:

Joseph Cammarata, an attorney who represents all seven women, said "no one should be surprised" at Cosby's lawsuit.

"It's a standard defense attorney’s play," he said.

Hard to imagine he could sink lower, but he has done it.

Just slink off and die ffs. How do some people get so lucky. He should be gassed or better yet, sent to the wrong prison block.

Most of this stuff happened in the 60s through the 80s. Because of the huge numbers of women coming forward now, we see a pattern of behavior. If any one woman came forward when it happened, the cops would have told her to take a hike. Regardless of what she said, they would have heard "I was drinking/drugging with Bill Cosby and we ****ed." No case here. No press would have touched it either.

Indeed, some of the women did say something at the time. They were loled at.

Not really sure how someone on Cosby's legal team could sleep at night. Has there ever been a situation in the history of life where multiple lawyers refused to represent a high profile person on moral grounds? It'd be nice to see some of these everyday chumps forced to represent themselves.

Yeah an eye for 50 eyes seems totally unreasonable. Probably should get a left wing slap on the wrist and some serious counseling. GTFO. Btw you should probably rethink where you take your moral stand next time.

Or justice system isn't based on the old testament.

You'll look like less of a dumbass if you don't try to ascribe inaccurate views to people. I'd love for Cosby to spend forever in prison.

Would that make his victims whole, protect society, or even make them feel better?

It would be far more immoral and dangerous to justice to have lawyers choose who to defend and how well to defend them based on their own feelings for the defendant.
