But there are also a lot of people now are being monitored via the remote comytrol devices and trapped in the trouble if so now it is really the time for them to use the car remote jamming to help solve such kind of condition and gain the safety environment as well.

It's nearly 2015 & you just realised what that little black box with the buttons do does?

You have to remember that in the 60's and 70's if you were a celebrity of fame, that was a different era. Cocaine use was normal for these people as were pills and some rather wild times were going on. So I would not rule some of this stuff happening. The only thing is why bring it up now? Decades ago this happened and if ties into something that happened recently it makes sense. But why not file a police report instead of running to TMZ and the Enquirer?

I too have asked this. I know that he just admitted to drugging a few women, but it still makes me wonder why they waited so long to say anything. I know the automatic response is "sometimes rape victims are afraid to say anything or are so traumatized they don't say anything". Which is fine, but then when they *do* finally speak it should be to the police, not newspapers and definitely not TMZ.

So I'm hoping you got a detail wrong, because how could NONE of them file a police report, yet claim in the media he raped them? There was a bunch of women making this claim. Tell me at least HALF of them filed a police report eventually.

Though he admitted to the drugging back in 2005, how did it take this long for it to come out? If the files were sealed, why were they magically unsealed now?

Because that lawsuit was settled under "confidential terms", basically the woman he drugged and raped took a settlement (money) to not talk about it again, would be my guess.

He only admits to procuring a prescription muscle relaxant that increases sexual arousal and offering it to women with whom he has sex, and the complainants acknowledge taking it of their own volition.

Even if we presume for the sake of argument that he administered this drug surreptitiously, why would he give them a drug to enhance their sexual experience if his intention was to have sex with them while they are unconscious? It does not make sense.

^^^No joke.

So he was a bit of a freak So WHAT?
It was consensual.
Defamation lawsuits, rape allegations a bazillion years after the fact...i call BS. The guy was a comedian with a kid's show on saturday morning, not Lucky frikking Luciano.
Its not like they were gonna get rubbed out by the Fat Albert & The Cosby Kid mafia for coming forward at the time.

And no i'm not trying to be flippant.

This is an insult to real rape victims who DO come forward, despite the very real threat of retribution for doing so.

Real rape victims don't come forward immediately or ever for a multitude of reasons (one of them being the readiness of people to side with the accused against them).

Cosby should be in prison.

I think we should research the documents/allegations more before we condemn him entirely.

If he is found to be truly guilty then Pudding Pops will never taste the same.....but I can't say if that is a bad thing?

My friend told me something interesting, not sure if it was true. He said back during the time Cosby apparently did this..benadryl fell under the bracket of a "qualude". Is this true?

But that doesn't answer why or how the files were unsealed now.

Over the other rapes, if true, then I'd say yes. But for the specific case he was talking about and admitted to? Nope, because the woman accepted cash to settle the case. He might indeed of gone to jail or at least been exposed in the media a lot sooner if whoever this was..had not simply accepted cash in exchange for her silence.

Not exactly sure how, but they were and his admission (for what you want to read into it) is there.

I guess I'm asking if it comes out the woman leaked the info wouldn't she have to give back the money she got? Either she leaked it or some government employee with access to that stuff leaked it.

Who knows, maybe she felt it was time to break her silence.

A victim taking money has no bearing on a criminal case. There are higher societal demands for justice.

I don't quite get what you mean. You are saying that if someone does something like rape and then pays a settlement to keep the victim quiet..if years later other allegations come out..this person can reveal what happened consequence free?

EDIT: I see now, you are saying he could of paid her to keep quiet, but still go to jail?

Cosby could likely sue her, if she did, as I imagine that was part of the legal binding contract she signed.

But with his fame and all these allegations, the leak could have come from a number of sources. Not sure why the "leak" is a bigger concern than Cosby's admission though.

Well it began with me wondering if perhaps the recent accusations against him might of allowed for the files to be unsealed.

They may have consequences, that really depends on the settlement I suppose, but they are required by the legal system to speak truth when under oath in a courtroom.

Criminal cases are not prosecuted for or by the victims, but by the government for the good of society.
