LOS ANGELES (KABC) --
Three more women have spoken out claiming Bill Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted them when they were in their 20s.(snip)

The statute of limitations has run out for any of the women to pursue legal action against Cosby, but attorney Gloria Allred said they have decided to speak out as a way to hold him accountable in the court of public opinion.

"The women who are with me today are not the last ones who will come forward. I can assure him that there will be more because women are no longer going to be intimidated by Cosby's celebrity, his money or his power," she said.

1. What I honestly wish would happen considering this very high profile case is that

It exposes the thousands perhaps more who have used wealth and standing to terrorize the unsuspecting, there is no such thing as Karma, we have to fight for our own justices...

[Mike Nelson]

2. This type of serial abuse...

...should have no "statute of limitations."

[avaistheone1]

9. Strongly agree. There is no statute of limitations on rape in other countries like Great Britain.

I hope this tragedy serves as an impetus to create a change in the law in the US.

17. serial allegations

Is more like it.

3. I just wonder how many of these women are simply just jumping on the bandwagon?

Besides, Gloria Allred is militant publicity hound.

It is very possible Cosby did sexually assault some women.

But ALL of his accusers? I have my doubts.

[AuntPatsy]

4. Even if it is one, your "Doubts" hopefully will not stop justice for these victims....

[Archae]

6. AS I SAID...

It is possible, that Cosby did sexually assault some women.

But all of them?

Just look at the Duke University accuser.

The woman who falsely put a college football star in jail for a rape that never occurred.

Fake accusations are very rare.
But they DO happen.

11. What is your point?

Even if (big if) one or more of his accusers is lying, what exactly is your point? That we should disregard such accusations? That we should assume that all accusations are false without an overwhelming preponderance of evidence? That he is innocent?

Your analogy to Duke is a red herring.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

12. Yeah, I almost feel sorry for poor Bill...NOT! Eff that sleazy creep & all the other "Predator Bills" out there just like him.

[JudyM]

22. Flawless logic.

Flawless sexist logic.

Reminds me of a couple of guys on an airplane I listened to as they smugly assumed that Anita Hill was lying about C.Thomas' grossly inappropriate behavior. Well guess what, she wasn't.

Reactions like yours are why more women don't step forward sooner when they're molested, frankly. Just no basis except the fact that some microscopically small number of women have assert they've been raped have lied. Who's on trial here?

[Trajano]

16. lying is not right

The fact that one was raped wouldn't justify 30 lies, for instance.

[geek tragedy]

8. Let's put it this way: do you think there is ANY chance that ALL of his accusers are liars?

If not, it's "very possible" that he is a rapist. He is in fact a rapist at that point.

[Sheldon Cooper]

18. We'll alert the media.

[6000eliot]

23. I guess we still don't know the answer to the question,

"How many women have to accuse a guy of rape before people are no longer willing to defend him?"

[Beauregard]

5. Oh, Jeebus!

Will it never end? The guy was a maniac.

[leftyladyfrommo]

7. We had a guy here in KC just get caught raping an unconscious

woman. Three men saw him and started pounding on the window and got the police there.

That man will probably get major prison time just for that one incident. And Cosby got away with it many times over and no one can touch him.

[Liberalagogo]

10. Wouldn't it be easier

if all the women who WEREN'T sexually assaulted by him came forward?

[chervilant]

13. Not funny.

Not even remotely funny.

[Liberalagogo]

14. Sucks to be you then.

n/t

[LanternWaste]

15. I imagine many people believe it "sucks" when they observe character in others.

I imagine many people believe it "sucks" when they observe the character in others they themselves lack. It's much more ethically convenient and simplistic as such...

[Liberalagogo]

19. My point still stands

The remark was not off color, inflammatory or offensive (except maybe to Bill Cosby).

Your self-righteousness is your own problem, and that must really suck for you.

[Blue_Tires]

20. It's "3 more *alleged* victims, or *accusers*" who spoke out

but carry on...
