Bill Cosby reportely hires private investigators to dig up dirt on accusers
New York Post ^ | 12/28/2014

Posted on 12/28/2014 8:13:26 AM PST by SteveH

Bill Cosby has hired a battalion of private investigators to dig up dirt on his many accusers, The New York Post has learned.

The comedian, fighting an onslaught of accusations that he sexually assaulted more than two dozen women over many years, is paying six-figure fees to private investigators for information that might discredit his alleged victims.

Multiple sources confirmed that Cosby, through his Hollywood attorney Martin Singer, is implementing a scorched-earth strategy in which anything negative in his accusers’ pasts is fair game.

At least one Glendale, Calif.-based firm with a half-dozen former LAPD detectives on staff is muckraking for Cosby, a source said.

Maybe they could team up with those PI’s that O.J. hired to find the “real killer.”

Bingo he walked away from the rapes.

I have a serious problem with the first woman telling him that she was going to accuse him of rape if he didn’t give her hundreds of thousands of dollars.

There’s a meme of a black woman saying, “Is Cosby writing checks yet? I may have been a little bit raped, too!”

That’s not a very encouraging thought, frankly.

So we are to assume this is a case of “Bimbo Eruption” that has to be brought down by a crone like Hillary and her entire bevy of government and private investigators , or a James Carville carping about 100 dollar bills, whores and a trailer park?

Juxatpose this with Herman Cain’s actions during the politically driven media onslaught with far, far fewer accounts and provenance.

Both he and Camille are protecting a legacy of a couple hundred millions of dollars.

While I’ve liked the guy through the years, he was a SERIOUS cash cow for his Media/TV Overlords.

My money is on, ‘They (media/tv) protected him, gave him cover, at all costs.’

We shall see...

Have any of his co-stars come forward to defend him? I’ve not stumbled upon that...

I have no idea if he did all these women or not.What strikes me funny is this happens when Bill goes out and tells the blacks how lazy they are and how they need jobs..and all.I for one would like to see him hire a detective maybe he can prove this is a set up by someone in high places..

This is what dirt does. Tries to muddy up the pond. To get the light off himself. If he can get people to simply question those that have made the allegations, then he can say “look, they are only in this for money.” But when you have this many women coming out to accuse him, SOMETHING has to be true. That many would not come forward just to try to get a few bucks in some law suit. Not after all these years. There is enough smoke here. There has to be a fire.

Never forget, everyone is “guilty” of something. Anyone challenging Alynski’s disciples had better be prepared for a public airing of any and all dirt.

If Cosby can do it, why can’t the Tea Party?

Find out what Obama is holding over the heads of Boner and McConnell. The drinking, the women, the boys, the graft...

The Clintons were masters at digging up dirt against their accusers. The hate, slander and attacks they did against those who caught them doing wrong was out of control. And Hillary? Death surrounds her with those who could point to the Clintons with wrong doing.

It’s a sound strategy.

If he knows that merely one is lying (decent chance), and he can expose this, then the whole group can be cast as potential frauds.

If all of them are telling the truth, then this is just a kamikaze mission that will go down in Hollyweird history.

That’s a lot of private investigators.

It’s safe to assume that 20 or so women all have some kind of dirt to be dug up, as you can dig “dirt” up on almost anyone. More so if they’re hanging around with that Hollywood crowd.

So, going by this, only someone as pure as the driven snow, or a mere child can be believed when she accuses a celebrity.

He’s an old man, he’s not going to be charged. Just do the regular apology/I’m sick/I won’t do it again tour and be done with it. Another option is to try “I couldn’t help myself, I was born this way” route. You never know.

Who is the first woman, who made that attempt at blackmail, and why didn’t he sue her and have her imprisoned?

You seem to have made up that entire post.

Almost all of his victims have been white, not black, and there is no blackmail involved, and the first was Lachele Covington, who filed a police report in 2000 for a sexual assault, and the second was Constand, who filed a police report in 2005 for a 2004 rape.

Cosby settled out of court for the Constand claim of drugging/rape, when she brought forth 13 more Jane Does in support of her case, and describing his particular rape method.

So what are you posting about, you appeared to have made it up entirely.

I don’t recall that anyone accused Cain of rape or even unwelcome advances.

I don’t either, but if you recall, the MSM, Democrats and RINOs acted very much like he was guilty of far, far worse.
