Bill Cosby has been convicted of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman.

Bill Cosby, 78, has filed legal papers against a woman accusing him of sexual assault, condemning her “obvious attempt to smear” him.

Bill Cosby, in sworn testimony a decade ago, said he had paid women after sex to keep the affairs from his wife, suggested he was skilled at understanding nonverbal cues for sexual consent and called one of his accusers a liar.

Bill Cosby’s admission that he obtained quaaludes to give to women he was pursuing for sex could bolster defamation claims lodged by his accusers, the women’s lawyers said after The Associated Press reported on newly released court documents.
