More than two dozen women have reportedly accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault over many years, according to Fox News.
In the midst of the allegations, the 77-year-old comedian has reportedly hired private investigators to dig up dirt on the women who have accused him of sexual assault, according to The New York Post.
“The strategy isn’t new and it’s quite simple: You say I’m a bad guy, well, let’s see what gives you the right to throw a stone at my house when your home is also made of glass,” a source stated, according to Fox News.
Another source added, “They were able to find out information about Beverly Johnson’s boyfriend who said she only had good things to say about Cosby. We found out that Beverly never told her live-in lover of several years what she’s now telling the media and we found that to be strange.”
Bill Cosby had reportedly recently questioned the credibility of his accusers.
“If you’re going to say to the world that I did this to you, then the world needs to know, ‘What kind of person are you? Who is this person that’s saying it?,’” Cosby reportedly told his legal and public-relations team at a recent meeting, according to an insider who was present.
As Bill Cosby continues to fight the allegations, Hollywood seems to have split opinions regarding the comedian and the sexual assault accusations that have been following him. While Whoopi Goldberg has shown her support for “The Cosby Show” star, producer Judd Apatow has spoken against Cosby via Twitter.
“Are you really going to let Bill Cosby perform on your stage January 7?,” Apatow tweeted to Toronto’s Center in the Square and London, according to NY Daily News.
The “This is 40” director added, “Is Cosby only popular in Ontario Canada at this point? Do people still find him delightful after 30 accusers?”
