Bill Cosby has hired a team of private investigators to dig up dirt the women accusing him of rape and sexual assault, according to Page Six in The New York Post.
Page Six reports that multiple sources confirmed the embattled comedian and actor is is paying six-figure fees to private investigators for information that might discredit his two dozen plus alleged victims.
"If you're going to say to the world that I did this to you, then the world needs to know, 'What kind of person are you? Who is this person that's saying it?'" Cosby reportedly told his legal and PR teams.

Yuck.
Meanwhile, director and producer Judd Apatow responded to a user on Twitter after they suggested Cosby’s accusers were not being truthful and just seeking to extort the star, saying "it is not extortion when most of the accusers do not want anything. These are much older woman who suffered for decades."

@CenCalDevil I wish he wasn't a rapist too. I am not sure why you feel the need to protect him. But your rage can't be making you happy.
