Bill Cosby 'used power and fame to prey on woman'

Bill Cosby used power and fame to drug and sexually assault a helpless woman, a court has heard on day one of the US comedian's trial.

"Trust, betrayal and the inability to consent - that's what this case is about," a prosecutor told the court in Pennsylvania.

Mr Cosby is on trial for allegedly molesting a woman who was seeking career advice in 2004.

Dozens of other women accuse the 79-year-old entertainer of sexual assault.

It is seen as the biggest US celebrity court case since the murder trial of former American football player OJ Simpson in 1995. Full story...
