I responded specifically to your statement on this thread that nobody would represent [those claiming Cosby sexually assaulted them] in a court of law.
You were wrong. I gave you the names of the attorneys who agreed to to represent those women in a court of law. If you would like, I can provide you with a .pdf of a legal pleading with one of those attorneys' signatures on it.
Instead saying 'pay no attention to the man behind the curtain' and trying to get everyone to ignore what you first wrote, you would be best served IMHO by saying that you were wrong.
I wrote exactly: “You don’t believe the alleged victims have been denied their own reputations and livelihood because they were presumed to be guilty and not innocent when no one would represent them in a court of law?”
The part which says, “when no one would represent them in a court of law?” means exactly that, “when”, i.e. during the space of time in which “no one would represent them in a court of law?” This period of time in which no one would represent the victims in a court of law extended variously from the day in which the rape occurred to some years afterwards. During this interval of time some of the victims tell us they were accused of being guilty of lying, often ridiculously so. They were repeatedly accused of what amounts as gold diggers trying to get some of Bill Cosby’s money.
So, you are wrong and being argumentative where there is no justification whatsoever. As my comments in the other threads clearly indicate, I have always been talking about the period of time before the first of the women finally secured legal counsel and a court hearing and before the statute of limitations had expired. You should also note how I posted links to such sources as an interview with a victim, and I was obviously aware of the 2004 court case in which Bill Cosby induced some of the victims to settle out of court before the other victims could testify in court. Consequently, your attempt to misrepresent my comment to mean other than what it clearly says is contradicted by the sources I linked and the very words I used.
Look again at what some of these women have said about what happened to them when they tried to tell other people about their being raped. Their talent agent denied them. The attorney laughed a victim out of his office. Their reputation was ruined. Their opportunity and potential livelihood as an aspiring actress was ruined. None of them were able to secure the help they needed to prosecute Bill Cosby in a criminal court before the expiration of the statute of limitations. “You don’t believe the alleged victims have been denied their own reputations and livelihood because they were presumed to be guilty and not innocent when no one would represent them in a court of law?”
