#BBB NEWS| Bill Cosby’s Wife Forced To Testify In Defamation Lawsuit

Bill Cosby’s wife of 50 years, Camille Cosby, will be forced to testify in a defamation lawsuit filled by several women who have accused the famed comedian of sexual misconduct.

According to reports, on Thursday (December 31st) U.S. Judge Magistrate David Hennessey in Springfield, Mass., said Camille Cosby failed to prove she and her husband were protected by the state’s marital disqualification law.

Judge Hennessey also denied claims the value of Camille’s testimony would be outweighed by the “undue burden” of the deposition.

A lawyer for Cosby’s accusers, Joseph Cammarata, argued last month he should be able to question Cosby’s wife because she may have had “information that’s relevant to the litigation in this matter.”

In a motion filed December 18, Cosby’s lawyers said Camille doesn’t have any information about the women’s accusations, and subjecting Camille to a deposition is unnecessary.

#BBB NEWS| Camille Cosby Reportedly Claims Husband’s Accusers “Consented” To Drugs And Sex

Apparently, Camille Cosby is still standing by her man. In a new report from the New York Post, Bill Cosby’s wife is unfazed by the revelation of a 2005 deposition in which her husband admitted to his intentions to sleep with women he purchased Quaaludes for.

A source close to the family told the newspaper that Camille believes the women involved with the fallen comedic star had “consented” to drugs and sex.

“Camille still doesn’t believe that Bill provided drugs and had sex with women without their consent,” the source told The Post. “She’s well aware of his cheating, but she doesn’t believe that her husband is a rapist.”

Unlike Jill Scott and Stacey Dash – who championed Bill Cosby’s legacy before rescinding their support – another source to The Post noted that naysayers only urge Camille to further her defense. The unidentified business partner with the Cosbys called Camille “a proud, dignified but stubborn woman. You can say that she’s standing by her husband, but really, the more people stand against him, the more she perceives it as an affront to her and all that she’s done to make him a star.”
