Civil Litigation Strategy and the Playboy Mansion Allegations

Gloria Allred explains that Bill Cosby's release from prison actually removes his ability to invoke the Fifth Amendment in pending civil cases, such as the lawsuit filed by Judy Huth regarding an alleged 1970s incident at the Playboy Mansion. The hosts discuss the "Survivor Sisters" support group and the strategic shift toward draining Cosby's financial resources through civil court now that criminal retrial is barred.
