Beverly Johnson Johnson got a call from her agent saying Cosby wanted Johnson to audition for a small role on The Cosby Show. Johnson met Cosby on the set, where he invited her to come over to his house to read for a part. The first time, Johnson brought her young daughter with her. Cosby served them brunch and gave them a tour of the house. Johnson returned a second time, alone. They talked about her career and Cosby led her upstairs, under the pretense that they would rehearse. Cosby had a big espresso machine installed in the room, and he insisted Johnson have a cup. She didn’t want to argue, and took two sips. After the second, she knew she had been drugged. Cosby approached her, and put his hand on her waist. Johnson cursed him and called him out for drugging her. Cosby grabbed her arm and almost dragged her down the stairs, out of the house, and into a cab. “In the end, just like the other women, I had too much to lose to go after Bill Cosby,” Johnson wrote in her initial public testimonial about the incident, in Vanity Fair, in December 2014. “It comes at an inopportune time for a black man of Cosby’s stature. It’s a conversation of race very much needed in this country for centuries, and there’s a conversation about violence against women that’s also needed. You have these two conversations happening. Just so happens that I am a black woman. Once I made the decision, I knew that [it] was going to be fraught with a lot of conflicting views. No one wants to be victimized again.” |

See their miserable gold-digger faces! All these years...how come it's now they're coming out to shout 'assault'? They probably had consensual sex with the man and are now seeing nothing but dollar signs!! |

IGBOSON1: Did you read their stories? I googled this article and some of the details are so disgusting: http://nymag.com/thecut/2015/07/bill-cosbys-accusers-speak-out.html I'm sorry but there's no way ALL these women were lying. Some of the accusers include high profile celebrities like Beverly Johnson. I feel like people are very anti-woman when it comes to rape cases. Pray this doesn't happen to any of your female relatives so that they don't have to deal with the trauma of being raped + the scorn of the public accusing them of being whores/gold diggers. 1 Like |

Bill Cosby is a typical Black man drunk on power and obsessed with sex to the extent of raping women. Women in America are lucky self. They should come to Nigeria....multitudes of poor women raped, assaulted and shamed to silence because their perpetrator was a powerful man. |
