Content warning: This story contains discussion and description of claims of sexual assault.Bill Cosby has been found guilty of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles in 1975, with jurors in the civil trial ruling in favour of Judy Huth, now aged 64.A majority of jurors found that Cosby had intentionally caused harmful sexual conduct with Huth, that he reasonably believed she was under the age of 18, and that his behaviour was motivated by unnatural or abnormal sexual interest in a minor, per The Guardian. Huth has been awarded $500,000 in compensation, considerably less than the $8million in punitive damages Huth’s lawyer, Gloria Allred, had sought.Huth filed the lawsuit back in 2014, initially saying the incident took place in 1974 when she was 15, but later saying she had made a mistake about the year and amending her claim.
