Actress Lili Bernard and Sammie Mays reportedly detailed their allegations against Cosby, 77, in a press conference with civil rights attorney Gloria Allred in New York. Bernard, who appeared in an episode of the final season of The Cosby Show, claims she received death threats from the comedian after he drugged and raped her while supposedly preparing her for a role in 1992.
“After he had won my complete trust and adoration he drugged me and raped me,”
Bernard reportedly said in her statement.
Bernard played the “zany and very pregnant Mrs. Minifield” on the classic show in the early 1990s
After the attack, the actress says Cosby told her:
“As far as I’m concerned, Bernard, you’re dead. Do you hear me? You’re dead, Bernard. You don’t exist, I never wanna see your face again. Now get the hell out of here!
I interpreted that as a death threat and feared for my life,” Bernard said.
The encounter reportedly left the actress feeling suicidal for months, and she claims she continues to suffer from panic attacks and night terrors “as a result of what Mr. Cosby did to me.”
Mays, who was working as a writer at the time she met Cosby, also detailed her memory of the attack at the press conference.
In the mid-’80s, she asked the comedian for an interview while covering the National Association of Television Program Executives convention in New Orleans. Mays says she invited Cosby to her hotel room to talk, where he allegedly mixed a drink for her. After she took two large swigs of the drink, she reportedly claims:
“The next thing I remember when I awoke from my state of unconsciousness, I seemed to have been drooling and was sloppily slouched in the chair with barely the edge of my bottom in it.”
According to Mays, she opened her eyes to find her shirt and bra undone and her Bosom s exposed. She also says her belt had been “unhooked and re-hooked, left loose around my hips.”
Both women’s stories bear similarities to the group of now more than 40 women who claim to have been drugged and assaulted by Cosby over his long career.
Three new accusers – who are also being represented by Allred – came forward just last week claiming to have been attacked by Cosby, including a former model who claims she was drugged by the comedian in 1975 at the Playboy Mansion in Chicago.
Cosby, his wife, Camille, and his attorney, Martin Singer, have steadfastly denied the accusations so far.
