Bill Cosby now faces a full force police investigation

 Bill Cosby now faces a full force police investigation, news sources have reported. Several more women who claim to have been sexually assaulted by comedy legend Bill Cosby have come forward sparking a ‘definitive open investigation’ by Los Angeles Police Department, a lawyer for one of the victims has told Daily Mail online. The new victims claim to have been subjected to sex attacks by Cosby but have asked to remain anonymous. Significantly, in another blow for the star, it is believed a number of the latest raft of allegations fall within the statute of limitations meaning he can be prosecuted if enough evidence is found.

This comes as a model who accused Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting her at the Playboy mansion six years ago tells Daily Mail Online that she is scheduled to meet with LAPD detectives to give a formal statement against the comedian. Chloe Goins, 24, claims Cosby, 77, spiked her drink with a sedative before luring her into a room and launching a sordid attack on her in 2008. Goins' case is being handled by experienced attorney Spencer Kuvin - we can reveal - the man who represented four victims of notorious billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The complaint will be a huge blow to Cosby – who already faces more than 25 historic accusations of sexual assault and rape – as Goins is the first accuser to go public whose allegations are not covered by the statute of limitations. But news that several other victims may also fall in to this same category will further rock Cosby and his legal team. Florida attorney Mr Kuvin told MailOnline: ‘I have sat down with my client and have a full understanding of the issues involved and what has occurred. I have had lengthy communications with the Los Angeles Police Department and there is now a definitive open investigation which is ongoing for, it’s my understanding, not only with Chloe’s case but other unnamed victims who have yet to be revealed publicly. ‘The police will be doing additional investigative work which will include things like issuing search warrants. ‘They want to get all their information first before sitting down and having an interview with Chloe about her incident.


  Chloe is willing to speak with the police as soon as possible, she is fully cooperating with them and she wants to tell her story to the authorities so that he is held accountable for what he’s done. ‘She fully understands her role in this, in that until now, she is the only victim who has been able to come forward who can likely prosecute him both criminal and civil.’ This comes after it emerged earlier in December that the LAPD plans to search Hugh Hefner's famous Playboy mansion as part of their investigation. Police are hoping Hugh Hefner, long a dear friend of the embattled 77-year-old comic, and his people will be of some help as they seek to gather evidence in several cases which are linked to the Playboy mansion. Last week prosecutors in LA decided not to charge Cosby over a similar sexual assault complaint made against him by Judy Huth - as that alleged offence took place too long ago. The stand-up comic – known as America’s favorite TV dad after his long stint in sitcom The Cosby Show – was investigated by police after accuser Huth claimed she was drugged and raped at the Playboy mansion in 1974, aged just 15. The LAPD opened an inquiry into Huth’s allegations but prosecutors announced that they would not be prosecuting him as the alleged attack took place over 30 years ago, and the statute of limitations had passed. However Goins, who last week told MailOnline how she woke up naked in a drug haze as Cosby licked her toes, was allegedly attacked in 2008 - meaning Cosby could face a criminal prosecution. If convicted, Cosby could face up to 48 months jail as well as a possible $10,000 fine. Mr Kuvin said his client is determined to seek justice despite being ‘very afraid of a powerful, influential man who clearly took advantage of her in a situation’. He said Goins, a lap dancer and model who lives in Las Vegas, only garnered the courage to come forward after seeing Cosby’s other accusers come forward. Kuvin said: 'Only now when she saw others speaking out does she feel comfortable speaking out. 'The one thing that I thought was very important is that Chloe was very adamant that she come out now because she could possibly be the one that is within the statute of limitations to be a able to bring a criminal action against Bill Cosby, so she felt a duty to come forward. 'Seeing these many other, much older, women with events that happened many, many years ago, she felt a duty to come forward and possibly - and hopefully - bring this man to justice where others cannot. 'She wants to see justice served and unfortunately all these other woman are unable to do that.

These events happened when she was 18 and she's now only 24, so hopefully she will be able to bring him to justice when no one else could.' Goins says she felt compelled to come forward after reading the accounts of other women who claim Cosby drugged and assaulted them in the media. In an emotional interview with MailOnline, she told how their stories had brought back chilling memories of the night she was allegedly assaulted at one of Hugh Hefner’s infamous summer parties. Goins, originally from San Diego, and a girlfriend, were introduced to Hefner and Cosby shortly after arriving at the party and the then-70-year-old comedian began lavishing the blonde with attention. He then went to get her an alcoholic drink, but soon after drinking it, Goins started to feel ‘foggy’ and ‘sick’ and Cosby offered to show her to a bedroom where she could rest. The next thing the model remembers is waking up completely undressed while a half-naked Cosby licked her toes and masturbated. Goins said she is sure Cosby had been licking her breasts and groping her body as well. She said: 'I remember waking up and feeling moist all over, like he had been licking all over me. 'He wasn't on my breasts when I woke, but I could feel, you know, the saliva on them and that he'd been licking on me. 'I felt embarrassed, it was a gross, icky feeling, I felt very violated and humiliated. 'I was scared, I was just 18 and he was an old man, I was not very sexually experienced and I didn't really know what had happened, it was violating.' Cosby quickly jumped up when she woke, pulled his pants up and left without saying anything, Goins claims. She didn’t report it at the time as she was scared of getting into trouble or ruining her modeling career. I remember waking up and feeling moist all over, like he had been licking all over me.'He wasn't on my breasts when I woke, but I could feel, you know, the saliva on them and that he'd been licking on me.'I felt embarrassed, it was a gross, icky feeling, I felt very violated and humiliated. Chloe Goins Experienced attorney Kuvin, who represented four victims of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, described the two cases as similar. Epstein, a friend of UK royal Prince Andrew, was arrested for soliciting underage prostitutes and jailed for 18 months in 2008. Although he only pleaded guilty to a single charge of soliciting an underage girl, the financier also made 17 out-of court settlements to other victims who brought civil suits against him, while more are ongoing. Speaking about the Cosby case, Kuvin said: ‘Through the representation in the past of the victims of sexual abuse by powerful people, this is a typical kind of case. 'In the past I have represented victims of Jeffrey Epstein who is a multi-billionaire. ‘And the girls that are subjected to rich, powerful men like this seem to fall within the same class of victim, they become very frightened and afraid of rich and powerful men and as a result they are fearful of speaking out because they don't know what the consequences will be if they say anything. 'So as a result you find victims who really don't feel comfortable until they see others speak out as eel and there is power in numbers.’ Goins and Huth are among dozens of women who claim Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted them, with some allegations dating back 40 years. Former Playboy bunny P.J. Masten, who claims she was raped by Cosby at the Playboy Club in Chicago in 1979, believes there are 12 other former Bunnies who are too ashamed to come forward with their own stories.

 Other accusers include supermodel Janice Dickinson, who told in an interview how Cosby invited her to Lake Tahoe to talk about a television role in 1982, but ended up drugging and raping her. Cosby has not yet commented on the accusations but did break his silence at the weekend to praise his wife for her ‘love and strength’. The comic also told Page Six, 'Let me say this. I only expect the black media to uphold the standards of excellence in journalism and when you do that you have to go in with a neutral mind.’ Los Angeles police declined to comment.
