Two more women say Bill Cosby raped them.
At a Los Angeles press conference organized by attorney Gloria Allred, Linda Brown and Lise-Lotte Lublin each came forward Thursday to accuse him of sexual assault.
Brown said the comedian drugged and sexually assaulted her at a Toronto hotel in 1969, when she was 20 years old. After she accepted a drink from him, "he flipped me over and sexually assaulted me," she said. Lublin accused Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting her at a Las Vegas hotel in 1989, when she was 23. She said she remembered regaining consciousness at home after accepting a drink from him.
The two are the most recent additions to a growing list of women who have publicly claimedthat they know or suspect that Cosby sexually assaulted and/or drugged them.
The dates of the alleged incidents described by Cosby's many accusers, all of which the 77-year-old comedian and his lawyers have denied, span from 1965 to 2008.
The allegations often follow a similar narrative: Cosby offers a woman a cup of coffee or alcoholic beverage, after which he allegedly sexually assaults her while she is impaired or unconscious. In addition, a handful of other women have accused Cosby of drugging them without sexually assaulting them, or of inappropriate grabbing or kissing without drugging them.
The women include lawyers, waitresses, aspiring actresses, and fellow celebrities, such as models Janice Dickinson and Beverly Johnson. Some had dating relationships with Cosby, while others say they saw him as a mentor. Some accusers say they were in their teens at the time of their claims.
It's a lot to keep up with.
