More Women Claiming To Be Victims Of Cosby Expected To Speak Out

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Three women who claim they were victimized by Bill Cosby are scheduled to appear at a press conference called by attorney Gloria Allred.

Allred has scheduled a press conference for Wednesday afternoon in Los Angeles and says she will propose a way the women can "obtain justice" despite statutes of limitations that would prevent criminal or civil cases from being filed.

Two of the women have never spoken about their experiences, Allred said in a release. The third woman was prepared to testify against Cosby in a 2005 lawsuit claiming sexual assault.

More than a dozen women have accused Cosby of drugging and sexually abusing them. Cosby's attorney, Marty Singer, did not respond to requests for comment on Wednesday.
