Bill Cosby Admitted To Drugging Woman In 2005 Deposition

by John Haltiwanger

In 2005, Bill Cosby testified under oath that he'd obtained Quaaludes for the purpose of giving them to women he desired to have sex with, the Associated Press reports. He also admitted to drugging at least one woman, and "other people."

Cosby apparently claimed he gave the woman three half-pills of Benadryl.

On Monday, AP obtained documents that revealed this testimony, which Cosby gave in relation to a lawsuit filed by a former Temple University employee.

Cosby reportedly settled this sexual-assault lawsuit in 2006, under terms that are not publicly known.

The comedian has never been criminally charged in spite of the fact dozens of women have accused him of sexual assault. Given many of these women alleged he drugged them prior to raping them, these new revelations are unfortunately unsurprising.
