now it seems everybody is coming out of the wood work to tell that they did it to him.I am not making excuses,, but think of it this way.1. Accusations happened in 1982 - why didn't you say anything then?2. Things that were "permitted or accepted" in 1982 are not now in 2014 -  not an excuse,, but just saying why didn't you say anything then? Didn't Arnold Swartzeneggar go through this same accusations while he was Mr. Olympia in the 70's and 80's?3. he was famous,, and you were star struck,, would that be an option? If I was rich and famous, I am sure I could use that to my advantage,, Mario Lopez has admitted that he did,,, I could name tons of stars who did. Brett Michaels has a book on the ladies lined up to get on the bus,,,, Again start struck4. Why now? Oh,, someone wants to make a book famous.  again,, why now Bill Cosby is 80 years old 4951

Things were said. Rumors have been following Cosby for decades. They got paid off or brushed under the table. He is a very powerful man and had the power of persuassion on his side. I don't know if he is guilty but 13-15 women have come forward. 4951

@Francita: true,, and if he did,, he should have paid for it back then. Not wait until he is about to die, to get paid off again.have you seen him,, he is very old.

What gets me is, many of the accusers later willingly hung out with him again after the alleged rapes occured.
 
I think its like the MIchael Jackson cases. I'm sure at one point or another something inappropriate happened, and once it comes to light many people jump at the chance to possibly cash in. 4951

@KTownTexican:
 
Oh yea. He is a crotchety old man now. Have you ever head any of his interviews. He pretty much hates everyone for everything. As far as the money, I believe but I don't know the law, the statute of limitations will protect him from having to pay. I don't even know of he can be taken to court. 4951

I think there is a possibility that many (if not all) of these Cosby cases are similar to someone sleeping with their boss to get a promotion and then later claiming they were sexually harassed. 4951

If a true rape occurred, why was it not reported.  Why not, 30+ years later?  I think Janice Dickinson's claim is highly suspect, and might be just another attempt to stay relevant by jumping on the latest bandwagon. 
 
I thought it was all total BS until I saw him pleading with the reporter not to air the interview. No, that doesn't make him guilty, but it does warrant an investigation.
 
Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but I definitely want to hear the whole story. 4951

There's a lot of old farts that have done some awful things and have gotten away with it, no mater how old you are you should pay for your actions taken to hurt others. Taking advantage of people is wrong, rape is a horrible thing and I believe the punishment should fit the crime. 4951

It's very sketchy in my opinion, I know a few women who have been unfortunate and had been violated.. In there eyes no amount of money will resolve what occurred. They see satisfaction "somewhat" when the individual who did the crime is put away.  They also would never consider becoming friends of the attacker or have any association with them.  I am not sure if there is truth behind it or not, I have not been able to chat with Mr. Cosby or any of the women who have come forward, all at the same time now after it broke out on the initial story. I surely won't go with what I have heard or seen in the media as you never get the full story from them.  I am seeing where pubic opinion is now dictating whether he has a show or not. It almost like he is guilty with out due process. He has not been charged with a crime, he has not been arrested so why are you canceling his shows and programs. That doesn't seem fair, now if he does get arrested and is found guilty of these crimes then canceling shows and programs would be more understandable.. Way to premature in my book.  And for all these woman to have been attacked and not one of them ever reporting it to authorities when it occurred is odd..  I understand 1 or 2 not reporting it, but it's unlikely all these women would not report it when it occurred.The one person I know that was violated went almost 2 years without reporting as it was a very well liked family member, but she still eventually reported it...  I guess we will see how it all unfolds. If he did it, then shame on him and he should be dealt with, if not and these women are telling stories then they should be dealt with for falsely accusing.   4951

I still think we are dealing with casting couch issues and not actual rape.  I'm just not seeing that happening at all.  4951
