Bill Cosby admits in a 2005 deposition to using fame and drugs in order to seduce women.
In Bill Cosby’s deposition from ten years ago, which has been recently obtained by the New York Times, Cosby admits offering career advice, using his money, and even asking one young women about her dead father’s cancer before “pushing them for sex acts.” All of which he spoke about under oath.
This new report expands upon the recent revelation from the AP that Cosby admittedly bought drugs “to use on women.”
From The New York Times:
He talked of the 19-year-old aspiring model who sent him her poem and ended up on his sofa, where, Mr. Cosby said, she pleasured him with lotion.
He spoke with casual disregard about ending a relationship with another model so he could pursue other women. “Moving on,” was his phrase.
He suggested he was skilled in picking up the nonverbal cues that signal a woman’s consent.
“I think I’m a pretty decent reader of people and their emotions in these romantic sexual things, whatever you want to call them,” he said.
Apparently, Cosby spent a large amount of the time making jokes, with one of the lawyers even saying that she thought he was “making light of a very serious situation.” Cosby replied, “That may very well be.”
According to The Times, Cosby described several inappropriate encounters with women, but “it is through his long and detailed descriptions of his relationship with [Andrea Constand, a young woman who worked at Temple University as a basketball manager], that Mr. Cosby’s attitudes, proclivities and approach to women are most clearly revealed.”
From The Times:
Early on in his courtship, he arranged an intimate meal alone with [Constand] at his Pennsylvania home, complete with Cognac, dimmed lights and a fire, he said….“I take her hair and I pull it back and I have her face like this,” he said. “And I’m talking to her …And I talked to her about relaxing, being strong. And I said to her, come in, meaning her body.”
But the two remained inches apart, he said, and he did not try to kiss her because he did not sense she wanted him to. Nevertheless, at the next dinner he said they had what he described as a “sexual moment,” short of intercourse. He described her afterward as having “a glow.”
Cosby continues to deny any accusation of sexual assault and has yet to be charged with a crime.
