Bill Cosby faces sexual assault charge
US actor Bill Cosby has been charged with sexually assaulting a woman at his home 12 years ago – the first criminal charges brought against the comedian out of the torrent of allegations that destroyed his good-guy image.
He has been charged with aggravated indecent assault in a case that sets the stage for one of the biggest Hollywood celebrity trials, and which could see the 78-year-old jailed in the twilight of his life.
