Ex-検察官,検事: Cosby paid accuser millions of dollars

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A former 検察官,検事 (人命などを)奪う,主張するs his 決定/判定勝ち(する) in 2005 not to 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金 法案 Cosby with drugging and (性的に)いたずらするing a woman led to the comedian 支払う/賃金ing his accuser a 解決/入植地 "井戸/弁護士席 into the millions of dollars."

Bruce Castor's 主張 in a 訴訟 Thursday against the accuser, Andrea Constand, and her lawyers is the first time anyone has put a value on the confidential 解決/入植地.

Castor 主張するs the women 害(を与える)d his 評判 and cost him a chance to return as 検察官 in 郊外の Philadelphia by 公然と 非難するing him and 告訴するing him for defamation days before the 2015 選挙.

Castor's 訴訟 doesn't explain how he would know how much Cosby paid Constand. Castor's lawyers and Constand's lawyers, Dolores Troiani and Bebe Kivitz, didn't すぐに return messages.

Castor ended the 調査 after four weeks, 発表するing Cosby would not be 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金d because the 証拠 had shown both parties "could be held in いっそう少なく than a flattering light."

He said he was 関心d that Constand had stayed in touch with Cosby and waited a year to call police. He said last year that the 決定/判定勝ち(する) was ーするつもりであるd to let Cosby speak 自由に at a civil deposition.

Cosby 証言するd in 2005 and 2006 as part of Constand's 訴訟 against him.

A new 検察官,検事 再開するd the 事例/患者 and 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金d Cosby after excerpts from that deposition about giving 麻薬s to women he 手配中の,お尋ね者 to have sex with were made public.

After Cosby's June 裁判,公判 ended in a mistrial, Castor said he was disappointed but not surprised.

"My opinion continues to be that Ms. Constand was probably the 犠牲者 of a 性の 強襲,強姦," Castor said. "'Probably' does not 勝利,勝つ 犯罪の 裁判,公判s."

A retrial is scheduled for April.

Another woman who says Cosby sexually 強襲,強姦d her, Kathrine McKee, has asked a 連邦の 控訴,上告s 法廷,裁判所 to 再考する her defamation 事例/患者 against him. A three-裁判官 パネル盤 of the 1st U.S. 回路・連盟 法廷,裁判所 of 控訴,上告s last month 辞退するd to 生き返らせる her 訴訟 against Cosby.

The former actress said Cosby defamed her in a letter his lawyer sent to the New York Daily News 需要・要求するing a retraction of a 2014 story about McKee's 主張s he 強姦d her 10年間s ago.

A 地裁 裁判官 who 解任するd her 訴訟 said the letter was 保護するd by the First 改正. McKee is challenging the three-裁判官 パネル盤's 結論 that she was a public 人物/姿/数字, which makes it harder to 勝利,勝つ a defamation (人命などを)奪う,主張する.

The Associated 圧力(をかける) does not typically identify people who say they are 犠牲者s of 性の 強襲,強姦 unless they 認める 許可, which Constand has done.
