This last summer, I won a case against a union contractor who claimed that I had signed a contract for house remodeling, and then had failed to pay him for the work he had allegedly done (which he hadn't). He had contacted my employer, people at my church, and even a few relatives back east, calling me a deadbeat and threatening to come after
them if I didn't pay up.
It took over a year, but I finally a got a judge to issue a "Show Cause" order to the contractor, who then stalled and delayed even further as he tried to ruin my credit completely.
Why? Because I had awarded the remodeling contract to a non-union competitor.
The union contractor finally had to admit that he had no cause to demand payment from me (claiming "Clerical Errors"). In other words,
he had no material evidence to show that I had done anything wrong!I counter-sued for libel and slander, and was awarded an amount more than eight times what the union contractor said that I owed him.
So, what's my point?
If Dr. Cosby sues any of his accusers, and the judge issues each of them a "Show Cause" order, then they will have to either put up or shut up. If they put up any alleged evidence for examination, they risk losing, and Dr. Cosby wins. If instead they shut up, then Dr. Cosby wins again.
Either way, once they fail to answer to the judge's "Show Cause" order, Dr. Cosby can then counter-sue and take them for everything they have - savings, property, future earnings, et cetera. Dr. Cosby doesn't have to prove anything, just get a judge to issue the order, and use their failure to follow through as sufficient cause to win settlements from them!
And THAT is why those women are attempting Trial By Media - they know that their claims won't stand up in criminal or civil court without valid physical evidence (of which they have none), so their hope is to harass him to the point where he'll give them millions just to shut them up.
