Bill Cosby said in 2005 he bought drugs to give women for sex

LOS ANGELES — Bill Cosby testified in 2005 that he purchased Quaaludes to give to women with the intent of having sex with them, according to new court documents obtained by the Associated Press.

He reportedly admitted to giving the drug to at least one woman and “other people.”

The 77 year-old comedian was testifying under oath in a lawsuit filed by a former Temple University employee. He admitted to giving the woman three tablets of Benadryl. The case was later settled out of court.

Cosby’s lawyers had been fighting with the AP to keep the documents private.

Cosby, who resigned from Temple’s board of trustees in December, has been accused of sexual assaulting dozens of women over the past few decades.
