Bill Cosby has been accused by upwards of 60 women of drugging and raping them throughout the course of his career, and he is now filing suit against 7 of them, claiming defamation of his character. Bill’s lawyer, Monique Pressley, announced the filing on Twitter today, with a statement that her client was filing counterclaims for “defamation per se, tortious interference and intentional infliction of emotional distress.”
The 7 individuals included are Tamara Green, Therese Serignese, Linda Traitz, Louisa Moritz, Barbara Bowman, Joan Tarshis and Angela Leslie. Read the full statement from Pressley below and let us know your thoughts.
