A jury has found disgraced actor Bill Cosby sexually abused a 16-year-old girl at the Playboy Mansion in 1975, awarding the victim $500,000

The victim testified the comedian invited her and a friend to the Playboy Mansion when she was 16, forcing her to perform a sex act.

She told jurors Cosby took her hand and used it to masturbate his penis.

Cosby’s attorneys have long denied the claim and previously attempted to get the case dismissed.

The former actor was sentenced in 2018 to 3 to 10 years in a state prison for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand at his home back in 2004.

He was released from prison in September 2021 after a Pennsylvania court overturned the conviction, saying Cosby’s due process rights were violated.

Established brands like Peugeot and Nissan are slashing prices by significant margins to compete with emerging Chinese EV competitors.

Facing a dual challenge of a decelerating growth in EV adoption and a surge in competitively priced alternatives from Chinese manufacturers like BYD and MG, traditional automakers are forced to enact substantial price cuts to clear inventory.

This trend reflects the fast pace within the market and signals the formidable struggle for dominance in the EV space. #featured #trending
