Bill Cosby’s former manager Andrew Wyatt (pictured right) tells TMZ the comedic actor was “just having a good time” when he gave Quaaludes to women.
Wyatt joined “TMZ Live” on Thursday after Cosby lost a civil lawsuit to Donna Motsinger, a former waitress who alleged he drugged and raped her in 1972.
Wyatt said Cosby plied women with Quaaludes in hopes of having sex with them. Quaaludes are a type of sedative that induces relaxation and sleep.
The jury awarded Motsinger $59.25 million in damages after first awarding her $19.25 million for pain and suffering. The jury awarded an additional $40 million in punitive damages.
Cosby didn’t testify on his own behalf during the 2-week trial. But he previously admitted under oath that he got a prescription for Quaaludes from a gynecologist at a poker game. He refilled the prescription 7 times with the sole intention of sedating women he wanted to sleep with. Cosby said he never took Quaaludes himself.
Wyatt says he’s not defending Cosby, and is just going off what Cosby told him and what he’s seen. He repeated Cosby’s claim that the women were asking for Quaaludes.
Cosby will appeal the jury’s decision, which could take years before the victim sees any money.
Cosby is reportedly broke and deep in debt to creditors, including past victims who won lawsuits against him.
