A woman who accused Bill Cosby of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1970s began her court testimony on Monday, describing how she and a friend met the comedian as teenagers and accompanied him to the famed Playboy Mansion.
In her lawsuit, Huth said Cosby forced her to perform a sex act while she was at the mansion. She previously said the incident occurred in 1974, when she was 15, but recently said she believes it was 1975.
Cosby’s lawyer Jennifer Bonjean said in opening statements the alleged assault of Huth was a “fabrication”, though Cosby did not dispute he invited Huth and her friend to the mansion.Samuelson recounted her recollection of events earlier on Monday. In 2018, Cosby was found guilty of drugging and molesting Andrea Constand, an employee at Temple University in Philadelphia, in his home in 2004.
