1 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Hey there, folks. 2 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: It is Tuesday, March twenty fourth, and a California jury 3 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 2: has found Bill Cosby liable for a sexual assault that 4 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 2: happened before Amy Robock and I were even born. And 5 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ 6 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: fifty plus years ago we're talking about. And a jury 7 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 2: just said, mister Cosby, you need to pay a huge 8 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 2: amount to this woman for something that happened in nineteen 9 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: seventy two. 10 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: Do I have that right? 11 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:48,639 Speaker 3: Yes, nineteen seventy two. 12 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 4: It happened on one occasion, and a jury took more 13 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 4: than two days to deliberate, but they have awarded this 14 00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 4: woman fifty nine point two five million dollars for her. 15 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 3: Pain and suffering and for punitive damages. In this case. 16 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 3: It was the largest verdict so far. 17 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 2: So far, we say, And to be quite honest with you, 18 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: it's hard to keep up. Every time I see a 19 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 2: Harvey Weinstein update about a trial day, I'm like, Wow, 20 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: he's still dealing with legal stuff. I'd be honest with you, 21 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: I didn't realize Bill Cosby is still dealing with lawsuits 22 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: that are flying all over Bliss. 23 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 4: He certainly is, And this was a doozy of a lawsuit. 24 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 4: And look, she testified, took the stand, described what happened 25 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 4: to her. She said on that day in nineteen seventy two, 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 4: three other women testified of having similar encounters with Bill Cosby. 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 3: He did not take the. 28 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 4: Stand, and it's interesting to hear what he said in deposition. 29 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 4: It wasn't He's denied, by the way, ever assaulting a woman. 30 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 4: He says that any sex he had in even any 31 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 4: coeludes he gave women, which he's admitted to doing, have 32 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 4: all been consensual that they agreed to take them. So 33 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 4: he admitted to having extramarital affairs and being a womanizer 34 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 4: and even drugging women, but he said it was all consensual. 35 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: And again Bill Cosby at this point has been out 36 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 2: of prison for several years. He had a ten year 37 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 2: prison Three to ten years is what it was supposed 38 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: to be. He served three because a was Supreme Court 39 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: throughout the criminal conviction. So everything that's going on with 40 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: Bill Cosby, all the accusations and things, one conviction and 41 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 2: that one was thrown out. So from a criminal standpoint, 42 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: he's dealt with that part of these cases correct. 43 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 4: And it was thrown out because a previous prosecutor had 44 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 4: agreed to not prosecute, and so when they went ahead 45 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 4: with a different prosecutor and pursued charges and he was 46 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 4: found guilty. Ultimately, the Supreme Court said he should never 47 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 4: have been charged in the first place, based on an 48 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 4: agreement that had been in place in that state. 49 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 2: So he's out of prison, been out of prison for 50 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 2: several years. And a reminder, this is an eighty eight 51 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: year old blind man at this point, and he is 52 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: still facing a number of lawsuits. This one now has 53 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: reached his conclusion and sixty million dollars. A lot of 54 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: people are going to be paying attention to this. But 55 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: this one had to do with a case in nineteen 56 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: seventy two. A woman who was working in of all plays, 57 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 2: places we Love actually Salsalito, California, out that the Beautiful 58 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: Bay Area said she'd been invited to a show by 59 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: Bill Cosby again nineteen seventy two. He had a comedy show. 60 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: She says, yes, she was offered drugs by Bill Cosby, 61 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 2: took them and again typical story that we've heard before, 62 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: and was sexually assaulted. 63 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 4: Yes, she said she thought it was aspirin. She said 64 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 4: she had a headache. She said, he gave her wine. 65 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 4: He picked her up in a limousine. She was a 66 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 4: waitress at a restaurant there in Salcelito, so she caught 67 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 4: his eye. 68 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: He invited her to a show. 69 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 4: She was excited, but she said when he gave her 70 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 4: that pill that she thought was an aspirin, she said, 71 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 4: she became incapacitated, and she testified about how she ultimately 72 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 4: was in and out of consciousness. She remembers being backstage 73 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 4: and she ended up waking up in her own home 74 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: naked and realized that she had been sexually assaulted. 75 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: And I guess folk Brogs should be addressed. 76 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: Here we are is this is twenty twenty six, and 77 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: we're talking about a sexual assault in nineteen seventy two. 78 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 2: This is happening now. But this this woman has been 79 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 2: actually trying to hold him accountable for twenty years almost. 80 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: This is not the first time this has come up. 81 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 4: Just now, correct and so yes, her reaction after the verdict, 82 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 4: she mentions that she says it's been fifty four years 83 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 4: to get justice. She says, I know it's not complete 84 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 4: for the rest of the women, but I hope it 85 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 4: helps them a little bit. And I thought this was interesting. 86 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 4: She said, I know this wasn't a criminal trial. I 87 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 4: know that I didn't get a guilty verdict, but she 88 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 4: said it was important that she was believed and that 89 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 4: Bill Cosby in some way was held accountable for what 90 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: he did to her. 91 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 3: And that makes sense. 92 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: And yeah, this girl's mentioning there, this has gone through 93 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 2: the process. She didn't just bring this up here all 94 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 2: these years later. She had actually been on the record 95 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: as early as two thousand and five with accusations she 96 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 2: had made and tried to go through the criminal process. 97 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: And again they changed even the law out there in 98 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: California to allow for victims of sexual assault to have 99 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 2: more time when it comes to a statute of limitations 100 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: in the criminal or even civil cases we've seen in 101 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 2: some places. But she was able to do this now, 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,679 Speaker 2: and why this is coming up, I find it pretty remarkable. 103 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: I think I find it incredible. 104 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 2: And some on the other side would even say, this 105 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: doesn't make sense. How can you hold him accountable with 106 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 2: something that happened that long ago? Who remembers when and what. 107 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: That's part of his argument, and even his attorneys argue, 108 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 2: you hold him liable for something that the woman even 109 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: says herself. She doesn't exactly know what happened. 110 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 3: Right, because she was drugged. She says she doesn't know. 111 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,559 Speaker 4: She just you know, a woman knows when she's had sex, 112 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 4: or at least when someone has penetrated her. That's pretty 113 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 4: obvious and coming in and out of consciousness, I think 114 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 4: when you have When you take her account and the 115 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 4: jury heard from three other women who had almost identical accounts, 116 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 4: that became a strong enough case from a civil lawsuit standpoint, 117 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 4: where the threshold is lower than it is in a 118 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 4: criminal court. And it did take them a couple of 119 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 4: days to come up with the verdict, but certainly it 120 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 4: was a large sum of money. And speaking to not 121 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 4: remembering things, it's interesting because yes, Cosby didn't testify, but 122 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 4: in his deposition he said that he remembers being in 123 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 4: a limo with Matzinger, and he remembers wanting to have 124 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 4: sex with her, but he doesn't remember whether or not 125 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 4: they did, and of course he denied completely doing anything 126 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 4: to her non consensually, So that is interesting. But his 127 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 4: lawyers not shockingly say they do plan on appealing, and 128 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 4: they're also considering just simply challenging the size of the 129 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: award because they say he can't afford it. They said, 130 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 4: this is not a man who has worked in ten years. 131 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 4: He doesn't have the funds. Although they had the prosecution 132 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 4: or sorry it's not prosecution, but the the Matzinger attorneys. 133 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 3: Said that they believe that Bill Cosby is still. 134 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 4: Worth one hundred and twenty eight million dollars, so he 135 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 4: can afford this nearly sixty million dollar lawsuit against him. 136 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: And it was broken down. 137 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: Some of this was different types of damages, but the 138 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: chunk of it forty million or so, was to punish 139 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: him literally, punitive damages for what had taken place. The 140 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 2: rest kind of reimbursement for damages for mental. 141 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: And all that stuff. 142 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, they actually the huge chunk of this was 143 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: a message they were sending about punishing Bill Cosby. Bill Cosby, still, 144 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: it's been a while, and it's been years. This is 145 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: a reminder, but Robes, he's come down from that pedestal. 146 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: But man, still, you've reminding of this story and just 147 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 2: how big his star was and how influential of an 148 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: entertainer he was in this country. 149 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 4: Oh, the Cosby Show was everything, and that Look, we 150 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 4: see these stories oftentimes where you've got these men in 151 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 4: powerful positions, who are beloved, who are put up on 152 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 4: a pedestal, who. 153 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 3: Have been accused of abusing that power. 154 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 4: But yes, to your point, the jury only well I 155 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 4: say only, but when you look at almost sixty million dollars, 156 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 4: only nineteen point twenty five million of that was for 157 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 4: her pain and suffering. It was the forty million dollars 158 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 4: that whopper of a judgment that. 159 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 3: Was for punitive. You're right, that was to say, hey. 160 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 4: We believe this woman, and you should be punished, even 161 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 4: though you're not behind bars, you should be punished for 162 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 4: what we now believe you did. Now, this is interesting 163 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 4: because his attorney you mentioned Hayes blind. That is almost 164 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,479 Speaker 4: exactly what his attorney said. This isn't about providing deterrence. 165 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 4: A blind eighty eight year old man can't leave his house. 166 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 4: That was in part her response to the judgment against him. 167 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: I mean punitive is punitive. 168 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what age he is, and I mean right, 169 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 2: nobody's saying he's a threat to the community necessarily. But 170 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 2: the still, this is what justice. This is what justice 171 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: can look like at this point. So if that will 172 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: ever happen, who knows, we know what his imprint has been. 173 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: We know this guy has made a lot of money 174 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: over a lot of years, a lot of decades in 175 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: his career, but sixty million hadn't work for a decade. 176 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 2: Does he have that sitting around? Stay here, we'll explain 177 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 2: what they say is financial situation looks like now are 178 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: continuing here on this Tuesday morning here on Amy and TJ. 179 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: Bill Cosby getting a sixty million dollar civil judgment against him, 180 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: he said he's going to appeal it a rose. We 181 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 2: don't know if he'll ever be if anybody will ever 182 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 2: see that money, but quite frankly, his team is saying, 183 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: you're not going to see it no matter what, because 184 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: we ain't got it. 185 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're saying, I mean he had to sell. He's 186 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: already had to. I believe two of his homes have 187 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: been foreclosed upon. 188 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 4: He did sell a Manhattan apartment for twenty eight million dollars, 189 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 4: and he still does own more than one home in Pennsylvania, 190 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 4: New York. So he does have tangible property. I'm not 191 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 4: sure how they go about trying to acquire that or 192 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 4: force him to pay. 193 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 3: We've certainly seen civil judgments. 194 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,119 Speaker 4: OJ Simpson comes to mind, most notably where the Goldmans 195 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 4: tried for decades to get money from him, and are 196 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 4: still trying to get money from his estate at this point. 197 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 3: So a lot of. 198 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 4: These judgments sound like big deals, and they are big deals, 199 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 4: but a lot of times they end up in practicality 200 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 4: being symbolic rather than actually financially lucrative. And remember, Bill 201 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 4: Cosby already had one other civil ruling against him back 202 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two. I forgot about this, where a 203 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 4: jury found him liable for sexually assaulting a then sixteen 204 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 4: year old all the way back in nineteen seventy five. 205 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 4: So even though his criminal conviction has been overturned, now 206 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 4: he has two civil lawsuits that have been successfully wagered 207 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 4: against him, and there are more in the wings. 208 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: And this is a guy we have from mean, he's 209 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: eighty eight. Who knows what kind of health he is 210 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: in now, but he certainly don't know whims the last 211 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: time we saw him in Well, he doesn't make public 212 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 2: appearances obviously, but yeah, he's kept an incredibly low profile. 213 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 2: He is living out his days and he is spending 214 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: those glory years, right he should have been celebrated to 215 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 2: the end of his days, still making appearances on television shows. 216 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: The kind of hero he could have been, but all 217 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: he's doing is waiting out his days robes and fighting lawsuits. 218 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was America's dad. 219 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 4: I mean we both were at that age where that 220 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 4: was such a juggernaut of a show, watched every single 221 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 4: Thursday night. 222 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 3: It was musty TV, and everyone loved him. 223 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 4: It was such a crushing blow to hear all of 224 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 4: these women's accounts, and yes there are now I think 225 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 4: it's one of those things where we talk about Sean 226 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 4: Diddycombs as well. 227 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: You start to lose count. 228 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 4: But by most accounts, there are more than a dozen 229 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 4: other lawsuits against Bill Cosey that have been filed in 230 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 4: multi states, including New York and Nevadas. So clearly a 231 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 4: lot of those women and their attorneys were looking to 232 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 4: see what would happen in this California civil case.
