"You can't say that I put something in your coffee, threw you in a cab and then you go on and live a high-profile life, a famous life and you never complain," Cosby said, referring to supermodel Beverly Johnson, who claimed Cosby spiked her cappuccino during a visit to his home in the 1980s, the source said.

The insider said they have also been able to dig up information on another accuser - Katherine McKee, an ex-girlfriend of the late Sammy Davis Jr who said Cosby raped her in the 1970s.
The comedian's investigators were immediately able to dig up internet posts in which McKee allegedly praised Cosby's stand-up act and wrote glowingly of him.
They also discovered a published interview in which she said she is "used to lying.
