Bill Cosby was given the opportunity to speak on the allegations of rape against him during an interview with NPR on Saturday, but declined by remaining silent and shaking his head at the interviewer.

Today, Bill’s attorney has released a statement regarding the accusations. It reads:

“Over the last several weeks, decade-old, discredited allegations against Mr. Cosby have resurfaced. The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true. Mr. Cosby does not intend to dignify these allegations with any comment. He would like to thank all his fans for the outpouring of support and assure them that, at age 77, he is doing his best work. There will be no further statement from Mr. Cosby or any of his representatives.” – John P. Schmitt, lawyer for Bill Cosby

Over the years, several women have accused Cosby of sexual assault. In 2006, Cosby settled a civil suit with one of the women.
