Over decades, Cosby has cultivated a father figure image besides being an entertainer. Cosby abuse allegations have dealt this image a major blow. Everyone considered him a father figure and has participated in numerous mentorship programs for young boys. His moral authority is now in question as the list of accusers grows.
Andrea Constand is the most popular accuser after the court filing in 2005. During the time of her molestation she worked with Temple University women basketball team as their director of operations. According to Andrea, the renowned comic molested her in Pennsylvania in 2004. She further claims that police refused to take her statement. She has opened a flood gate with up to twelve women coming forward with similar accusations.
Tamara Green joins a list of twelve other accusers with her claim that the comic drugged her groped her while she was unconscious. A similar pattern of drugging can be seen in the twelve women who have come forward. The actor has maintained his innocence amidst all the claims.
Beth Ferrier told the Philadelphia Daily News that she was among the anonymous women listed in the Andrea Constand case. She claims to have been sexually assaulted inside a car in Denver back in the 1980s. She also cited drugging before being molested. The story is said to have surfaced in 2005 but lawyers pushed for its withdrawal. In 2006, Andrea settled the case out of court.
Barbara Bowman was an upcoming actress in the 1980. She met the comic who became her mentor. She was assaulted on several occasions in New York City and Reno during the period. This story came to light in December of 2006.
The story hit headlines again in 2014 after Barbara and Tamara had their claims reprinted in Newsweek and Gawker. The media was warming up to Cosby with reruns of his shows, appearance in stand-up comedies and new shows. Netflix was planning a standup appearance on November 28th while NBC was to feature him as a patriarch in an extended family for their new show.
Mark Whitaker wrote a biography entitled Cosby, Life and Times. As a renowned journalist with CNN and Newsweek, it was expected that he would include the allegations, but he did not. He claimed that none of them had been verified in court or by an independent witness. This meant that they did not meet the required threshold.
The rapist mention in a comedy show by Hannibal Buress in Philadelphia made the clip to go viral online. The renewed attention saw Daily Mail publish the original allegations made by Barbara Bowman where she refers to him as a monster. Buress told reporters that he has mentioned the case on several shows but these instances did not attract any attention.
The accusations have seen cancellation of events and shows featuring Cosby. They include appearances at Queen Latifah Show, the Late Night Show with David Letterman and airing of shows at Netflix, TV Land and NBC. Those who have come to his defense include Whoopi Goldberg and Phylicia Rashad, who worked with him back in the years.
