Hugh Hefner Deposed in Bill Cosby Assault Case

LOS ANGELES (CN) - Hugh Hefner gave videotaped deposition earlier this week in the case of a woman who claims that Bill Cosby sexually assaulted her at the Playboy Mansion when she was 15.

Judy Huth, of Riverside, California, sued Cosby in late 2014, claiming the comedian molested her at a party at the property in 1974 when she was 15.

In an email, Huth's attorney Gloria Allred said that her firm had taken videotaped deposition of Hugh Hefner on Wednesday at the Playboy Mansion.

"Because there is a protective order in place, we are not at liberty to discuss any part of Mr. Hefner's testimony. We look forward to our day in court, after criminal proceedings against Mr. Cosby are concluded," Allred wrote.
