Guilty of sexual assault on a woman who, at the material time, was a minor.

This is what was decided by the jury of the civil trial on Bill Cosby who reached the finish line in California .

Judy Huth , the victim, was 16 at the time. And according to what has been reconstructed, the harassment took place in Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion in 1975.

Huth had accepted the invitation of Cosby , at the time already a famous actor, to join him in Hefner's villa but she did not expect that the comedian, who in those years starred in films with Sydney Poitier and Richard Pryor, would have forced her to an unwanted sexual act for which Cosby will now have to pay half a million dollars in damages .
The verdict helps to demolish once again the image of the former "good dad" of the "Bill Cosby Show" (in Italy it came out with the title "The Robinsons") who had already been convicted by a criminal court for sexual harassment and then released for a form defect .

Huth had entered the field in 2014, but in addition to her, the Los Angeles verdict gives satisfaction to the dozens of women who over the years have told the same story about Cosby : flattered and lured in the bedroom , drugged or induced to drink. until you lose consciousness and then attacked. Many of them, at the time of the first trial, had not been able to be heard because they had not come forward at the time of the events, but in the case of Judy Huth the possibility of putting Cosby in front of his responsibilities was admitted because the woman, in 1975, he was a minor and had sued before a civil court.
