Bill Cosby Pulls The Race Card After Beverly Johnson Comes Forward Stating He Drugged Her With The Intent Of Rape

Actor and comedian Bill Cosby, star of the 1980s hit sitcom “The Cosby Show” is under fire as 25 women have come forward accusing him of drugging and raping them. Cosby, who had settled a legal case brought against him by several of his accusers years ago, has dodged questions from the press about his conduct, while his attorney tried to state the allegations are fabrications. 

A few days ago, famous supermodel and businesswoman, Beverly Johnson, came forward in Vanity Fair magazine, stating Cosby drugged her with the intent of rape, but she fought back. In a well written article in her own words, Johnson, lifts the veil on the Hollywood icon, confirming people’s worst fears and suspicions regarding him.

In the 1980s, Cosby reached out to the ground breaking model, who was the first African American woman to grace the cover of Vogue magazine. Cosby asked Johnson to appear on “The Cosby Show” which had many guest stars playing themselves or others. It was the top show of its time and the most special sitcom to many, so Johnson, just like any person in the entertainment industry at the time would, gladly accepted his offer. 

Cosby encouraged Johnson to bring her young daughter by his home in New York for brunch. They discussed her appearance on the show and he asked her to come back for another visit reading her acting role. During the second visit Cosby insisted Johnson try a cappuccino from his high end machine, an appliance that was uncommon in the average home at the time. Johnson stated by the second sip she knew she had been drugged by Cosby. She began screaming at him and calling him “motherf*****.” This enraged Cosby who dragged her down the stairs with such force she stated she thought her neck would break. He pushed her into a cab outside his home and she woke up the next morning in her bed.

Cosby’s wife, Camille has leapt to his defense stating, “He is a kind man, a generous man, a funny man. A different man has been portrayed in the media over the last two months. It is the portrait of a man I do not know. The story was heart-breaking, but ultimately appears to be proved to be untrue. Many in the media were quick to link that story to stories about my husband -- until that story unwound. None of us will ever want to be in the position of attacking a victim. But the question should be asked -- who is the victim?” 

Cosby for his part, is playing the race card in this matter, which is highly inappropriate under the circumstances, as he is in the wrong. Cosby recently stated to the New York Post, “'Let me say this. I only expect the black media to uphold the standards of excellence in journalism and when you do that you have to go in with a neutral mind.”

Why are you bringing this burden on the black media. What does race have to do with this. Women of different races, both black and white, famous and non-famous, whom you’ve had interactions with, are credibly accusing you of drugging and raping them. It's time to admit the truth to the public and stop hurting people.

I do believe some women lie about being raped. However, I do not believe Cosby is innocent in this matter. Furthermore, he had settled in court with many of his accusers years ago, in an effort to avoid prison, which is where he belongs. No one has the right to drug and or rape anyone. It is a cruel crime that is so predatory and sick in nature, it deserves to be exposed and dealt with it criminal court.

Sexual Predators Like Bill Cosby And Stephen Collins Are Protected By Hollywood But They Should Be In Jail

Idolatry is not a good thing. People fall in love with television and movie characters and music personas that they do not truly know. Unless you know a person personally, do not vouch for them, as the entertainment industry is often smoke and mirrors. There are decent celebrities out there, who are not pedophiles, sexual predators, killers or thieves, but there are some stars who are dangerous deviants harming innocent members of the public and hiding behind celebrity to get away with it in the eyes of the law. 

Two such current examples are actors Bill Cosby and Stephen Collins. Cosby was branded “America’s favorite dad” due to his role on “The Cosby Show” which was one of the most successful sitcoms in television history. Collins was known as the wholesome pastor in charge of his church and family on the show Warner Bros show “Seventh Heaven.” 

However, in real life, these men are sick sexual predators accused of raping women. Cosby has been accused of raping and drugging 25 women, celebrities and non-celebrities alike. Collins was caught on tape admitting to molesting underage girls. Neither have been arrested. Hollywood is a very cruel industry. Women and men are often forced into sex with people they do not want, in order to have or keep their career. Even underage minors are being preyed on.

One of Cosby’s accusers, the famous, respected supermodel, Beverly Johnson, who was the first black woman to appear on the cover of Vogue, stated she wanted to come forward long ago but, “I had too much to lose to go after Bill Cosby.” Cosby is a spiteful, vindictive man, who another famous woman, Louisa Moritz, stated threatened her into silence, with the potential loss of her career if she didn’t “keep her mouth shut” about him forcing her to perform oral sex on him. That was sexual assault. Years ago, Wendy Williams also spoke out on her radio show about the sexual assault rumors concerning Cosby and nearly lost her job over it when he contacted her station manager.

Women and men who refuse the sexual advances of people in Hollywood are blacklisted. In some cases, vindictive, spiteful industry men and women will sic private investigators, such as the now incarcerated, Anthony Pellicano, on those who reject their sexual advances, who wiretap, harass, terrorize, threaten and sometimes assault them for daring to reject a celebrity. I gave the FBI information regarding Pellicano’s terrible criminal behavior and he was arrested 4-months later and sentenced to 15-years in prison for a crime spree of wiretapping, harassment, computer hacking and identity theft that destroyed the lives of many innocent people Hollywood celebrities in their insanity paid him to cruelly target. 

There is a strain of mental illness running through Hollywood, regarding famous megalomaniac sexual predators (both male and female) stars and executives, targeting innocent people who simply want a career in entertainment. Hollywood is not a safe place for men, women or children. It is being run by a small group of mentally ill people imposing their unlawful will on innocents, in exchange for fame and money. Those who refuse are horribly targeted, terrorized, harassed, abused and spied on like dogs. 

The government has not done enough to counter this problem. Hire hands such as Pellicano have been imprisoned but certain sick celebrities and executives should be in prison and not on the streets preying on innocent people. Even children are being abused and molested in Hollywood on a regular basis. It needs to stop.
