Bill Cosby's Wife Camille Continues Deposition Today

Camille Cosby, who has stood by her husband Bill despite scores of sexual assault allegations against him, is answering questions under oath today as part of a defamation lawsuit filed against him the entertainer by seven accusers.

Camille Cosby's deposition is taking place at the downtown Boston law offices of her attorneys.

The first part of the deposition took place in February at the Springfield, Massachusetts, Marriott, where she was questioned by a lawyer for the accusers.


The deposition is taking place in Massachusetts because the Cosbys are Massachusetts residents, with a home in Shelburne.

Camille Cosby, 72, has repeatedly sought to postpone or end the deposition. A court filing by her lawyers claims lawyers asked her "improper and offensive questions" about her "sexual relations," her political commentary and the 1997 death of the Cosbys' son, Ennis.

"These questions were irrelevant to the issues in this case and plainly were designed to annoy, embarrass and oppress the witness," Camille's lawyers wrote in a motion.

But last week a U. S. magistrate judge ruled that the deposition would continue but that the types of questions would be limited, including a prohibition of questions involving protected communications between spouses.
