"the same as a person would, say, have a drink," he said. "when you got the quaaludes, was it in your mind that you were going to use these quaaludes for young women that you wanted to have sex with?" the lawyer asked. "yes," cosby answered. he admitted to offering constand money for education because he was afraid she would go public. the comedian, who has been married to camille cosby since 1964, recounted meeting a model in the 1980s. he asked about her father, who had died of cancer.
