*The list of accusers grew by two Thursday (Aug. 20) as two more women came forward with accusations of sexual assault against Bill Cosby.
People reports the accusers, Charlotte Fox and “Elizabeth” – who asked that her real name not be used – were present at a press conference held by Gloria Allred, the civil rights attorney who is representing Cosby’s alleged victims.
During the press conference, the women detailed their individual experiences with Cosby. In addition to Allred, Sarita Butterfield, another alleged Cosby victim who revealed her story last November, joined the women in support.
Voicing her story, Elizabeth claimed she was barely 20-years- old when she met Cosby in the summer of 1976. At the tine, she was working as a flight attendant when Cosby allegedly invited her to the Playboy Mansion. Despite declining the funnyman’s invitation initially, Elizabeth stated that a persistent Cosby later called her hotel to invite her again.
Elizabeth went on to accept Cosby’s invitation to dinner after spending an afternoon at the mansion since, she said, “Mr. Cosby had been a gentleman.”
While they allegedly dined at Tokyo KaiKan, Elizabeth told Cosby that she did not drink or use drugs. She claimed that Cosby insisted she drink sake to “loosen” her up. From there, Elizabeth remembered feeling light-headed after drinking the sake.
“I was completely in a trancelike state, like I was dreaming,” she read in a statement. “I don’t remember how we got to his hotel room. He went to the bathroom and undressed and came out in a robe.”
Elizabeth went on to mention that she could barely stand up because of how sick she felt.
“He made me kneel down,” she read from her statement before breaking down in tears. “All I know is that it was the most horrifying thing that could happen to an innocent woman.”
For Fox, it was on the set of “Uptown Saturday Night” when she met Cosby in the ‘70’s. Fox, who was 23-year-old at the time, was working as an extra on the movie. Their meeting resulted in Cosby inviting Fox and a few other people to a late-night jam session at a local jazz club.
Once dinner and drinks were had, Cosby purportedly invited everyone in the group to continue their time out at Playboy Mansion. People notes that it was there that Fox allegedly fell ill after eating and drinking some more.
“I vaguely remember coming back from the bathroom,” Fox read in a statement. “The next thing I remember was that I was sort of awake, in a bed, with no clothes on and there was Mr. Cosby, in a robe, crawling from the bottom of the bed.”
“I was incapacitated and couldn’t say no,” she added. “He engaged in sexual activity with me. It was not consensual.”
