Lawyer releases statement

Cosby’s lawyer, John P. Schmitt, releases a statement on Cosby’s website regarding the sexual assault allegations that have been leveled against Cosby.

Over the last several weeks, decade-old, discredited allegations against Mr. Cosby have resurfaced. The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true. Mr. Cosby does not intend to dignify these allegations with any comment. He would like to thank all his fans for the outpouring of support and assure them that, at age 77, he is doing his best work. There will be no further statement from Mr. Cosby or any of his representatives.
