LOS ANGELES (AP) — Bill Cosby
was sued Tuesday by a Southern California woman who claims the comedian
molested her in a bedroom of the Playboy Mansion around 1974 when she
was 15 years old.
Judy Huth's
sexual battery lawsuit does not specify how much she is seeking from
Cosby, who has in recent weeks faced renewed accusations that he drugged
and sexually assaulted more than a dozen women for many years.
Huth's
lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, however, is the first time
that a woman has claimed she was underage when she was abused, and it
is the first lawsuit Cosby has faced claiming sexual abuse since 2005.
Huth's
lawsuit states that she and a 16-year-old friend first met Cosby at a
Los Angeles-area film shoot and the comedian gave the girls drinks a
week later at a tennis club.
The
lawsuit states that Cosby took them to the Playboy Mansion after
several drinks, and told the teenagers to lie and say they were 19 years
old if asked. Her lawsuit states Cosby forced her to perform a sex act
on him with his hand.
An
email message sent to Cosby's attorney Martin Singer was not immediately
returned. Singer has denied previous accusations or said the women
raising the claims in interviews had been discredited.
Singer's
statement does not apply to a lawsuit brought in 2005 by Andrea
Constand, who claimed Cosby drugged and molested her at his suburban
Philadelphia mansion in 2004. Constand, who worked for the women's
basketball team at Temple University, and Cosby settled the case before
trial....More
