Things have not been too rosy for the renowned Bill Cosby with allegation of rape from different women springing out about how he drugged them and had his way sexually with them
For the past two months Bill Cosby didn’t speak on the allegations until recently. He asked the
black media to be neutral and praised his wife for supporting him as more and
more allegations surface.
His wife of 50 years, Camille breaks her silence, defending
her husband in a statement.
I met my husband, Bill Cosby, in 1963, and we were married in 1964. The man
I met, and fell in love with, and whom I continue to love, is the man you all
knew through his work. He is a kind man, a generous man, a funny man, and a
wonderful husband, father and friend. He is the man you thought you knew.
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. It is also a portrait painted by
individuals and organizations whom many in the media have given a pass. There
appears to be no vetting of my husband’s accusers before stories are published
or aired. An accusation is published, and immediately goes viral.
We all followed the story of the article in the Rolling Stone concerning
allegations of rape at the University
of Virginia. 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? Only time will tell
