Singer Morganne Picard accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault in a new lawsuit filed in New York on Friday. Picard claimed Cosby used his "power, fame, and prestige" to sexually abuse the international performer.
Her lawsuit also named Kaufman Astoria Studios, the Carsey-Werner Company and NBC Universal Media in the lawsuit. Picard first met Cosby after the comedian invited her to the set of "The Cosby Show" around 1987, according to court documents.
She became close with Cosby and his wife and explained she saw the actor as a "father figure." However, Picard said Cosby would often encourage her to drink alcoholic beverages he provided, and she blacked out on "multiple occasions." The singer alleged that on one occasion she awoke at a "hotel room, naked, with soreness" after accepting a drink at Cosby's home.
Picard further alleged that the co-defendants "enabled and aided" Cosby's sexual assaults in order to continue financially benefiting from the actor, according to the documents.
