One of Bill Cosby's daughters on Tuesday defended the comedian against allegations from more than a dozen women that "The Cosby Show" star had sexually abused them decades ago.
Evin Cosby, 38, said in a statement that Cosby "is the father you thought you knew," echoing the statement of her mother, Camille Cosby, who publicly defended her husband for the first time on Monday.
The statements from Camille and Evin Cosby have drawn on the comedian's affable TV persona as the wholesome father Dr. Cliff Huxtable on the top-rated series "The Cosby Show."
