MOSCOW, June 15 Nine women have been accused of harassing Bill Cosby, 85, and are suing him in Nevada District Court, NBC reports.
The document says that the actor used his «tremendous power, fame and prestige» to sexually abuse each of the nine women. Previously, the right to file such claims in this state was limited to two years.
Dozens of women have previously accused Cosby of harassment and abuse. In 2018, he was found guilty of raping Andrea Constand. He spent more than two years behind bars. In 2021, Cosby was released by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. His case was closed for technical reasons: the conviction was based on testimony that prosecutors had previously pledged not to use in court.
In early June, former Playboy model Victoria Valentino, 80, sued Cosby, accusing him of of rape.
It was previously reported that more than a hundred stars accused the Cannes Film Festival of supporting violence. According to the authors of the open letter, the review spreads «a red carpet for men and women who behave aggressively.»
