Despite her attempts to fight the subpoena, Camille Cosby, 71, will have to testify at her husband’s deposition on January 6.
Lawyers for Camille believe she shouldn’t have to testify against her husband because she doesn’t have any first-hand knowledge of the alleged assaults and she did not provide her husband with the pills used to drug the women. U.S. Magistrate Judge David H. Hennessy wasn’t buying it. “I find no merit in Mrs. Cosby’s arguments, and accordingly deny her motion in its entirety,” he said in his December 31 ruling. “Mrs. Cosby’s dual role as defendant’s wife and business manager, render it at least plausible that Mrs. Cosby is in possession of information that ‘is relevant to any party’s claim or defense and proportional to the needs of the case.’”
According to Page Six, Camille Cosby was subpoenaed as part of the defamation lawsuit against her husband brought by plaintiffs Tamara Green, Therese Serignese, Linda Traitz, Louisa Moritz, Barbara Bowman, Joan Tarshis and Angela Leslie. These are the alleged rape accusers that Cosby filed a defamation suit against in December, who are now suing him back — for defamation.
