“It is curious that he has filed a claim only against these seven women, when there are scores of other women who have made similar allegations of sexual abuse and assault against Mr. Cosby”.

In a huge scandal that has come to light recently, comedy actor Bill Cosby is being sued by more than 50 women who are making claims of sexual misconduct against them on the actor’s part.
In a recent lawsuit filed in a Massachussetts federal court, Cosby claims Serignese, Barbara Bowman, Tamara Green, Angela Leslie, Louisa Moritz, Joan Tarshis and Linda Traitz lied when they made their claims and tried to “assassinate” his “honorable legacy” to make a buck.
The comedian is suing the women for defamation, tortious interference and intentional infliction of emotional distress “for their malicious, opportunistic, and false and defamatory accusations of sexual misconduct”, the suit states.
The women’s lawsuits were first filed in December 2014.
“My seven clients intend to vigorously proceed with their case and move forward as expeditiously as possible to get their day in court because each one of them are confident that their good name and reputation will be restored at the end of the day”, Cammarata told ABC News.
“Bill Cosby appears to be going to war against women who have sued him in MA and who allege that he has victimized them”.

Cosby’s lawsuit says that the women “knowingly published false statements and accusations” against him.
Ten women have sued Cosby for defamation in four separate cases, asserting that they were branded liars when his representatives forcefully dismissed their allegations. He maintains his story that he never drugged or raped any of these women, and Cosby is seeking punitive damages and compensation for the lost business contracts and damage to his career that resulted from their claims against him. Do you think these women are simply out for financial gain?
