If you have been living in some sort of entertainment news doldrums for the past few months, allow me to catch you up. All of the trouble started a while back when Hannibal Buress was video taped during a stand up special in which he lambasted Cosby for raping women.
After the video made its rounds on social media, numerous women sprang up all over claiming that they were assaulted by the comedian. Some of these claims were made over ten years ago, and a few were newer and unheard of. These claims come from women of all walks of life, from unknown former fans of the comedian to even Lou Ferrigno’s wife.
As of now over 30 women have come forward and told their side of the story. And as of now, Cosby has really to address the issue.
So much for his career being long from dead.
