"Donna Motsinger was a server at the Trident, a highly regarded restaurant in Sausalito, California, when she met Cosby in 1972. She was 31 and had served his table. Cosby was a Trident regular, according to court papers. One week when Motsinger was working, Cosby was particularly extroverted."
"As with other Cosby accusers, Donna Motsinger alleges that Cosby incapacitated her with some sort of drug to facilitate the attack, according to court documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court. Cosby has maintained that he did not assault Motsinger."
"Motsinger's lawsuit is reportedly among dozens of other civil actions against Cosby now playing out in courts across the U.S. The trial, which is expected to last two weeks, started in earnest on March 10 with opening statements, and three other accusers are poised to testify."
Bill Cosby, the 88-year-old disgraced comedian, is on trial in Santa Monica civil court for allegedly sexually assaulting Donna Motsinger nearly six decades ago. Motsinger, now 84, was a server at a California restaurant when she met Cosby in 1972. She alleges that Cosby drugged her to incapacitate her before the assault occurred before a comedy show. Cosby denies the allegations and maintains he has never sexually assaulted any of the numerous women who have come forward against him. The trial began March 10 with opening statements and is expected to last two weeks, with three additional accusers scheduled to testify. This case is among dozens of civil lawsuits against Cosby currently proceeding in courts across the United States.
