Comedian Bill Cosby walked into a Pennsylvania courtroom yesterday for the biggest legal fight of his life: battling criminal charges that he drugged and sexually assaulted a Temple University employee he once mentored more than ten years ago. The employee, Andrea Constand, 43, was the first of one of more than 50 women to accuse the now 78-year-old entertainer of sexually assaulting and/or drugging them. While Cosby is fighting other civil cases involving similar accusations, Cosby has only been charged criminally in Constand's case. He and his attorneys have steadfastly denied the allegations from Constand and the more than 50 other women who have accused him.
