Bill Cosby found liable of sexual assault of 16-year-old teen

Published on

A jury has found that Bill Cosby had sexually abused a 16-year-old girl at the Playboy Mansion in 1975. The court awarded the now 64-year-old Judy Huth, half a million Dollars in damages. The result of the 7-year legal battle is a significant defeat for the 84-year-old entertainer, who was once hailed as America’s loveable dad figure. Over recent years, his family-friendly reputation was quickly shattered after more than 50 women accused him of sexual assaults over 5 decades.
