Referred to as a comedic genius Bill Cosby’s career has flourished throughout the decades and at one point was labeled “America’s Dad” for his role in “The Cosby Show”. But, recently the comedian has been playing a new role; as a defendant. Cosby has been accused of dozens of sexual assaults and for the most part has remained silent.
Now, Cosby has opened up to XM Radio about the allegations and touched on an issue first introduced by his daughter Ensa. Ensa Cosby has publicly come out and said that the allegations are race related in an effort to tarnish her father’s reputation.
During an interview on XM Cosby was quoted as saying “Could be. Could be,” Cosby told Sirius XM’s Michael Smerconish about Ensa’s “racism” theory.
“There are so many tentacles,” he added. “So many different–‘nefarious’ is a great word, And I just truly believe that some of it may very well be that.”
In total, Cosby has been accused by 58-women; accusing the comedian and actor of drugging them and performing sex act while they were unconscious. .
