Cosby hits back at his accusers - Salon.com
"Cosby’s team claims that Huth’s lawyer Marc Strecker initially approached them demanding $100,000 to stop their case from going forward – a sum they say they then raised to $250,000."
Continued:
"In a Thursday court filing, Cosby attorney Martin Singer called Huth’s claims “meritless and unsupported” and said that they came “immediately after Mr. Cosby rejected plaintiff’s outrageous demand for money in order not to make her allegations public.” He added, “Recognizing that they committed extortion and could face significant consequences for their conduct, plaintiff’s counsel Marc Strecker rushed to the courthouse to file this lawsuit on behalf of his client.” And he continued, “Conspicuously absent from her complaint, however, is the fact, confirmed by plaintiff’s counsel, that plaintiff unsuccessfully tried to sell her story to the tabloids nearly a decade ago.”
