Cosby found guilty of sexual assault and told to pay $19m
The Independent
|March 24, 2026
A civil jury in California found yesterday that Bill Cosby was liable for drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in 1972 and awarded her $19.25m (#14.34m).
After a nearly two-week trial in Santa Monica, jurors found the 88-year-old Cosby liable for the sexual battery and assault of Donna Motsinger.
Cosby’s attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, said in an email that they are disappointed and fully intend to appeal the verdict.
The decision came nearly five years after Cosby was freed from prison in Pennsylvania when the state Supreme Court threw out a criminal conviction based on similar allegations.
