Jill Scott on Bill Cosby Quaaludes Testimony: "Completely Disgusted"

The news of Bill Cosby's unsealed testimony from 2005 has everyone up in arms after the actor failed all attempts to prevent the records from going public. Over the past 20 years, well over 30 women have come forward recalling a similar story of being drugged and raped at the hands of the once-beloved family man icon Bill Cosby. In court proceedings Cosby admitted to purchasing Quaaludes with the intent to drug women he'd planned on having sex with. The new admission has once Cosby defender Jill Scott taking back her support.

Earlier this week Scott took to her Twitter to denounce Cosby and her support of him, admitting that she was "completely disgusted" by his actions.

Scott is just one of the many that have come forward to either lend support to Cosby or share regret over supporting someone that has been accused by countless women alleging the same thing.

The soul singer publicly pledged her allegiance to the 77-year-old comedian back in December 2014, defending him against Twitter followers slamming Cosby online looking to defame his legacy. Fast forword to present day, and the fall out behind Cosby admitting to drugging women has become monumental. Scott took to Twitter to voice her hurt with the following tweets.

In the wake of Cosby's admission, The Cosby Show reruns have been pulled off air indefinitely, in addition to a statue of the disgraced star being removed from Walt Disney World's famous grounds. This is definitely a far fall from grace for the star, as this comes after years of denying any truth to the allegations.
