Cosby sex accuser ‘tried to extort money’

A woman suing Bill Cosby for sexual battery attempted to sell a story about the comedian to a tabloid a decade ago and tried to extort money in exchange for her silence, Cosby’s attorney said in a court filing.

Attorney Martin Singer wrote in the filing that the lawsuit by Judy Huth and her attorney followed a failed attempt to extort $250,000 (€203,000) from Cosby. In the filing, Cosby seeks more than $33,000 from Huth and her attorney.
