Bill Cosby’s daughter Evin Cosby has spoken out in his defense, saying that he “respects women.” Her words come shortly after Bill confirmed that he is now blind.
Evan took to Facebook to share her feelings about her father.
“I know that my father loves me, loves my sisters and my mother. He loves and respects women. He is not abusive, violent or a rapist. Sure, like many celebrities tempted by opportunity, he had his affairs, but that was between him and my mother. They have worked through it and moved on, and I am glad they did for them and for our family.”
Bill is currently scheduled to go on trial in June and face the accusations of one of the over 50 women who have claimed that he sexually abused them.
Evin went on to say:
“The harsh and hurtful accusations of things that supposedly happened 40 or 50 years ago, before I was born, in another lifetime, and that have been carelessly repeated as truth without allowing my dad to defend himself and without requiring proof, has punished not just my dad but every one of us.”
