Bill Cosby sued in Nevada by 9 women who claim they were drugged, sexually assaulted
The lawsuit was brought after the statute of limitations was dropped.Nine women have filed a lawsuit against disgraced actor and comedian Bill Cosby, accusing him of sexually assaulting them between 1979 and 1992 in Nevada.
The suit, filed in the Southern Division of the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada, comes as a result of a 2023 law that eliminated the statute of limitations for sexual assault victims to sue the perpetrator for damages arising from sexual abuse, according to the suit.
Cosby is accused of sexual assault, battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent infliction of emotional distress and false imprisonment, according to the suit. The nine women who filed the new lawsuit in Nevada are Lise Lotte-Lublin, Lili Bernard, Janice Baker-Kinney, Rebecca Cooper, Linda Kirkpatrick, Janice Dickinson, Angela Leslie, Pam Joy Abeyta and Heidi Thomas.
After Cosby was sentenced to three to 10 years in Pennsylvania state prison in 2018 for allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting former Temple University employee Andrea Constand in 2004, his conviction was overturned on appeal in 2021 and he was released.
The conviction was overturned in June 2021 when the Pennsylvania Supreme Court concluded Cosby's prosecution should never have occurred due to a deal he cut with the Montgomery County prosecutor, who agreed not to criminally prosecute Cosby if he gave a deposition in a civil case brought against him by Constand.
Cosby has always denied all allegations of wrongdoing and said any sexual relationships were consensual.
"Mr. Cosby is a Citizen of these United States but these judges and lawmakers are consistently allowing these civil suits to flood their dockets -- knowing that these women are not fighting for victims -- but for their addiction to massive amounts of media attention and greed," Cosby's publicist Andrew Wyatt said in a statement to ABC News. "From this day forward, we will not continue to allow these women to parade various accounts of an alleged allegation against Mr. Cosby anymore without vetting them in the court of public opinion and inside of the courtroom."
Last December, five women filed a similar suit against him accusing Cosby of sexual assault and battery under New York's Adult Survivors Act.
Cosby, in a statement from his representatives, denied those allegations at the time, saying, "Mr. Cosby continues to vehemently deny all allegations waged against him and looks forward to defending himself in court." He filed a motion to dismiss the case last month.
