Connections: Lessons From The Cosby Sexual Assault Story

WXXI News | By Evan Dawson
Published July 15, 2015 at 2:22 PM EDT

In this edition of Connections, we explore the lessons from the Bill Cosby sexual assault story. Earlier this month, court documents were released that showed Cosby admitting to using Quaaludes for the purpose of sedating women for sex. Why is it that so many people only now believe the claims of nearly 40 women? We dive into this and more with our guests:

  • Dolores Krebs, University of Rochester Medical Center
  • Anna Potter, program director for Bivona Child Advocacy Center
