Old friend lobs new accusation at Bill Cosby
Mere hours after Bill Cosby played a sold-out comedy show in Melbourne, Fla., and spoke out about having to defend himself “against innuendo,” another woman has come forward with an accusation.
This time, though, the woman says Cosby did not commit the sexual assault — someone else did.
Overnight, TMZ.com reported that Joyce Emmon, a friend of Cosby’s from the comedy club circuit, said that he once gave her a white pill that he said would help her migraine. Emmon says she then blacked out and woke in Cosby’s bed with a friend of the comedian that she had turned down earlier that night.
