*Los Angeles prosecutors are currently weighing whether to charge Bill Cosby in the one of the few sexual assault accusations in which the statue of limitations does not apply.

Chloe Goins, a model, came forward in January alleging that Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her at the Playboy Mansion in 2008, when she was 18.

Sarah Ardalani, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office, said Friday that the Los Angeles Police Department presented the results of the investigation to the sex crimes division on Wednesday, and the case is under review.

She said the office did not know when prosecutors would decide whether to file charges against Cosby.

Cosby has denied the over 50 accusations of sexual assault and drugging against him, and has never faced criminal charges.

A rep for Goins’s lawyer told the New York Times that final preparations were underway for a news conference next week.

Cosby, 78, is also scheduled to be deposed under oath next Friday in a case involving accusations that he sexually assaulted another woman, Judy Huth of California, in 1974, when she was 15.

Huth claims Cosby forced her to perform a sex act on him at the Playboy Mansion.

Cosby’s lawyers have filed for a protective order to make the questioning private, and a hearing on whether to allow the protective order is scheduled for Monday, said Gloria Allred, Huth’s lawyer.
