Bill Cosby found guilty of 1972 sexual assault, victim awarded nearly $60m
"Motsinger said Cosby had invited her to his stand-up comedy show at a theatre in nearby San Carlos. She said Cosby gave her wine and two pills that she believed were aspirin, and that she was going in and out of consciousness as two men put her in a limousine."
"The jury awarded Motsinger $17.5 million in past damages and $1.75 million for future damages, reflecting the severity of the assault and its impact on her life."
Bill Cosby faces allegations of sexual misconduct from over 60 women, which he denies. A jury found him liable for drugging and sexually assaulting Donna Motsinger in 1972, awarding her $59.25 million. Motsinger's lawsuit claimed Cosby invited her to a comedy show, gave her wine and pills, and she later woke up undressed at home, believing she had been raped. Cosby's lawyers argued the allegations were based on speculation. He did not testify during the trial, which included witnesses from previous cases against him.
