Janice hailed over bravery in Cosby trial

- BY PATRICK HILL

JANICE Dickinson has been praised for her key role in helping to convict Bill Cosby of sex offences.

The former model, 63, was one of 62 women to publicly accuse the 80-year-old US comedian.

Only one, Andrea Constand, was able to bring charges but Janice and others supported her case by telling in court how he attacked them.

It helped secure a guilty verdict in court in Pennsylvan­ia this week.

He now faces up to 30 years’ jail.

Janice’s lawyer Lisa Bloom said: “Janice and these brave women had to put up with a lot of hate to get to this point.

“Thanks to their bravery he was convicted. I expect a lot more of his victims to come forward.”
