Another woman stepped out to accuse Bill Cosby of sexually assaulting her.

A woman named Cindra Ladd claimed that the embattled comic actor drugged her first before sexually assaulting her in New York in 1969. Ladd alleged that Cosby gave her a capsule after meeting her in New York in 1969 when she was 21-years-old adding that she spent the rest of the night in a "blur", the Huffington Post reported. She said she was then 21 and he was 32.

Ladd then perceived that Cosby was "one of the most likable and popular entertainers in the business."

 "He asked for my number and I gave it to him... He was married to his current wife [Camille Cosby] and he acted like a perfect gentleman," she said.

Ladd revealed that the actor gave her pill that he assured her would ease her headache.

"I asked a couple of times what it was. Each time he reassured me, asking, 'Don't you trust me?' Of course I did. This was Bill Cosby," she said.

She narrated her experiences then, as she recalled "vividly and clearly" recalled "waking up the next morning nude in the bed of his friend's apartment and seeing Cosby wearing a white terrycloth bathrobe and acting as if there was nothing unusual."

She concluded that it was definitely obvious that the actor had sex with her, leaving her feeling "horrified, embarrassed and ashamed."

Asked why she did not tell the police of what happened to her, the former film executive said that the situation back then was different and "date rape" was something that did not exist way back then.

Over two dozen women have already stepped out to claim that they were sexually assaulted by Cosby. Among those were high profile celebrities, like supermodels Janice Dickinson and Beverly Johnson.
