Cosby seeks ban on drug testimony
Bill Cosby’s lawyers filed a motion Tuesday to prevent jurors at his upcoming sex-assault trial from hearing the actor admit to giving women sedatives, money or educational funds, saying the testimony would unfairly prejudice them. Cosby acknowledged in a decade-old deposition that he gave one woman sedatives and a string of women alcohol or pills before sex. Cosby, 79, is charged with drugging and sexually assaulting Canadian woman Andrea Constand, then a Temple University basketball team manager, in 2004.
