Two More Bill Cosby Accusers Come Forward

It's a familiar tale.

Two more women have come forward with allegations of sexual assault against Bill Cosby. Lawyer Gloria Allred organized a press conference yesterday where Sunni Welles and Margie Shapiro detailed their stories. Shapiro was 19 in 1975 when she says Cosby invited her to dinner but they ended up at a Playboy Mansion guest house instead.

Cosby challenged her to a game of pinball, and said whoever lost would swallow a random pill. What a great idea! Shapiro lost, and what happened when she came to is by now a familiar tale: "I came to a little and the first thing I saw was Bill Cosby's face not far above me and we were both naked," she said. "He was inside me and touching me and I was so grossed out, I can't find the words to express my disgust."

Welles was only a 17-year-old aspiring singer in the 1960s when she says Cosby took her to a jazz club and she blacked out after drinking only a soda. "Cosby allegedly told her that she had gotten drunk on champagne and must have stripped herself, but a subsequent outing with the comedian ended the same way," Gawker recounts. "I remember drinking a Coke and again I awakened in the same room alone and naked," Welles said. "This time I didn't call him and I never heard from Bill Cosby again."

So far, Cosby has not responded to Welles and Shapiro's allegations.
