Since 2014, dozens of women have come forward to say they had been raped or sexually assaulted by Bill Cosby. The statute of limitations precluded charges being filed for a majority of the offenses but Cosby was convicted in 2018 on three counts of aggravated indecent assault and is now serving a three-to-ten-year prison sentence in Pennsylvania. When he starred as Cliff Huxtable on The Cosby Show, Cosby was called "America's favorite dad." That was then, this is now:

Several women say Adams offered to jumpstart their music careers, then pursued them sexually and in some cases retaliated when they spurned him. He denies the claims.
