He shamed himself.

However, some people can separate fiction from reality. Dr. Huxtable was a great role-model. He was also a fictional character on a sit-com. Bill Cosby, the actor who played Dr. Huxtable, is an incredibly talented actor. He was also a sexual predator. I say was, because I'm going out on a limb here and assuming that he isn't capable of being a predator of any kind, anymore, and no woman in their right mind would let him buy them a drink, anymore.
Bill Cosby was Bill Cosby the comedian before he played Dr. Huxtable. I'm sure that most of us remember Bill Cosby talking about his real wife and kids during his stand up routines. Everyone loved him and found him to be very relatable.

Then these shocking allegations came out and this is simply not something that people wanted to believe about the man. How could funny, lovable, decent Bill Cosby have such a dark side to his character?

Phylicia Rashad worked closely with Bill Cosby for years and never saw that side to him. I'm not sure how that's possible given the number of women Cosby is alleged to have assaulted over the years....but I do believe Phylicia when she says that she never saw Cosby behaving inappropriately towards women.

The whole thing is a tragedy on so many different levels. It's one of those things that a lot of people don't want to believe. But if he actually admitted to drugging women in order to have his way with then what else can we believe? It's horrible.
