With rape allegations against Bill Cosby mounting, supermodel Janice Dickinson tells ET in a new interview that the comedian sexually assaulted her in 1982.
Dickinson, now 59, recalls first meeting Cosby, now 77, when her agent set up a meeting with him to hire her for a role on The Cosby Show. After they had dinner, she says their next conversation was when he called her out of the blue while she was in rehab for drugs and alcohol. Following her stay in rehab, Dickinson says Cosby reached out to her during a trip to Bali and had her travel to Lake Tahoe, because he was performing there and wanted to offer her the job they had discussed as well as help her with a singing career.
Dickinson says they had dinner in Lake Tahoe, and claims that he gave her a glass of red wine and a pill, which she asked for because she was menstruating and had stomach pains.

And that's when she tells ET that things took a disturbing turn.
"The next morning I woke up, and I wasn't wearing my pajamas, and I remember before I passed out that I had been sexually assaulted by this man," she tells ET. "... Before I woke up in the morning, the last thing I remember was Bill Cosby in a patchwork robe, dropping his robe and getting on top of me. And I remember a lot of pain. The next morning I remember waking up with my pajamas off and there was semen in between my legs."

No, actually, if he committed the acts as described, then he is far more deserving of punishment than those running Hollywood, or any communists chomping at the bit over whatever.
Rape is a violent felony of a sexual nature, and it is a serious crime.
If he did what these women say, then he’s a monster. Not a symbol of a monster, but an actual monmster with victims.
So my suggestion is that he speak up for himself, because his silence is supicious, and it is lending crdence to their allegations.

Cosby is anti-GOP, anti-Tea Party, pro-Obama and possibly anti-white. He is not a Republican.
1980 article - He again at Playboy mansion (1968, 1980, 1981 articles I found with him at Playboy events). This article, he gets seemingly perturbed at question about it & his marriage (which he makes sound like an open marriage), and does not seem like fun guy on race issues: http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=R5McAAAAIBAJ&sjid=FGMEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6806%2C2705708
Bill Cosby had a vile temper, punched out comic Tommy Smothers and was a hard-partying philanderer caught in a love child scandal that almost cost him his marriage, reveals new book http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2757889/Bill-Cosby-vile-temper-punched-comic-Tommy-Smothers-hard-partying-philanderer-caught-love-child-scandal-cost-marriage-reveals-new-book.html
That’s Janice Dickensen? I didn’t know who she was when I saw her on that America’s top model show my daughter used to watch, only that she calls herself the first “supermodel”. At that point she was an obnoxious unattractive lady imo. Here, she kind of reminds me of a young Phoebe Cates.
Hmmmm,mabye a discredited Cosby wouldn’t be in a position to support Dr. Ben Carson.Is that possible?
Keep in mind that even exoneration may not be enough to remove the stain, unless the MSM gets behind clearing him.
I don't know the particulars of the situation, and have read conflicting reports of Cosby's attitude in private vs his public persona, but not everything you read on the internet is true.
You would think someone with a specific family-oriented market who preaches personal responsibility and did not take his comedy into the blue (to retain that market) would be especially careful to avoid involvement in situations which could alienate him from the same people who have been his bread, butter, and gravy. He should be more media-savvy than the average bear.
Quote Cosby’s lawyer, John P. Schmitt, issued a statement on Sunday in response to the sexual assault allegations after Cosby’s initial response of just silence during an NPR interview Saturday.
“Over the last several weeks, decade-old, discredited allegations against Mr. Cosby have resurfaced. The fact they are being repeated does not make them true,” the statement reads. “Mr. Cosby does not intend to dignify these allegations with any comment. He would like to thank all his fans for the outpouring of support and assure them that, at age 77, he is doing his best work. There will be no further statement from Mr. Cosby or any of his representatives.”
I don’t argue with the idea that rape is a crime. But I must disagree with letting Hollywood and communism off the hook.
Hollywood creates these monsters daily. This is not symbolic but real. Communism not only doesn’t care that it creates the attitudes and the environment for murder and rape—it actively seeks to continue to do so.
We don’t need a court of law to know this about Hollywood and about communism. But in the case of an individual, if all you have is his silence you have no case and he is acquitted of the charges.
Get lie detectors going.
IMO too many are coming forward and it appears Co by raped a lot more than most comedians cuss.
Certainly there’s a pattern here a la Bill Clinton. These women are probably targeted because the rapist figures they can be intimidated. If it was me, I would fight tooth and nail, and if the rapist was successful, I wouldn’t rest until the creep was dead. I really don’t understand these women who don’t tell anyone and hide it for years; I suppose they grow up to some extent and decide they can handle it. Though, this Dickinson person is a total nutter and could just be hitching her wagon to get attention.
I think maybe his particular kink, what he got off on, was the betrayal, and getting away with it. Like Jimmy Savile in the UK, laughing at the girls when they awoke, saying, there’s nothing you can do, nobody will believe you.
And that being true, and his celebrity status protecting him for all these years. Like Jimmy Savile.
“They were literally restaffing the office entirely with blacks for Mr. Cosby, because he didn’t want any white employees around when he was getting his dental work done.”
YES! This is also exactly what the custom yacht/jet/airplane painter told me 20 years ago! Besides being a tyrant with an explosive temper, he could not stand whites, and would literally yell at his posse, “I don’t want to see any WHITE PEOPLE here!” The problem was, they could not find a black custom painter who could do the job, so my painter friend was kept on the job, frequently around Cosby, and heard the tirades and anti-white statements repeatedly.
Please go back and read #73, and then we’ll continue the conversation.
#73 nails the dynamics at work here.
I agree. If he was innocent, and they were all making it up to smear him, he would be on TV constantly defending himself.
IMHO, “the Cos” is just waiting for the axe to fall. He knows what he did, and how many girls are out there who will now come forward. It will unravel very fast now, like the Jimmy Savile case in the UK. Read #73 about how Savile got away with it for decades, if you have not.
“As we talked in the living room of Hef’s mansion in Chicago, Negro comic Bill Cosby shuffled by in a slipover, miniskirt-length, gold bathrobe...”
Yep, I think that was where he developed his kink to full flower. The playboy mansions were full of young wannabee models who were “available” as they tried to latch onto fame to further their careers. I have no doubt that Cosby took full advantage, and probably at some level really despises pretty white girls. (See his anti-white stuff above.)
I think when he was too old for the Playboy mansion (and it was the wrong image even by the 80s for him) he moved on to seducing/”mentoring” young actresses and then drugging them. But what probably really got him off was that he was betraying, humiliating etc. these pretty young white models. “See, you’re nothing. I’m better than you, even if you are young, white, and beautiful.”
Oh my goodness, everybody should read that old article! Not only living at the Playboy mansion for weeks at a time in his forties (while married), when asked if he’s religious, he says, “How can I be religious, when there are things like rape, poverty, war, starvation” etc.
The FIRST evil he speaks of is RAPE. Very telling.
(I’m paraphrasing, it’s a photo of an old newspaper article, I can’t copy/paste it here.)
She’s had a rough life, and the Cosby episode probably didn’t exactly help to put her on a better path, to say the least.
