Lili Bernard, a former actress who is listed as having appeared on The Cosby Show, has reportedly stepped forward as a new accuser with rape claims leveled against Bill Cosby.
Bernard was mentored by the comedian, USA Today reported,
and made an appearance on the show in 1992 as Mrs. Minifield in the
episode "Bring Me the Lip Gloss of Deirdre Arpelle." The former actress
is one of two women that made public claims at a New York press
conference on Friday alleging that Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted
them in the 1990s.
According to the newspaper's report, another accuser, Sammie Mays,
also appeared at the press conference and said she met Cosby in the
late 1980s while covering a convention in New Orleans. She claims she
was sexually assaulted during an interview in his hotel room after he
gave her a drink and she lost consciousness, USA Today reported.
Gloria Allred represented the women at the press conference.
"Unlike
most other states, New Jersey has no statue of limitations for rape,
which means that law enforcement is not prevented from prosecuting a
case because of an arbitrary time period set by law," Allred said, as
quoted by the newspaper.
