A Bill Cosby statue is being evicted from Walt Disney World.
A bronze bust of the actor, who has been accused of sexual
misconduct by more than two dozen women, was removed on Tuesday
night from a section of the Disney's Hollywood Studios theme
park that pays tribute to TV legends, according to the Orlando
Sentinel.
The move comes after the Associated Press obtained court
documents from 2005 in which the comic and actor admitted to
obtaining quaaludes with the intention of giving them to women
with whom he planned to have sex.
Cosby has never been criminally charged in connection with the
accusations.
Brittany Gavrilova, who says her aunt is one of Cosby's alleged
victims, commended the removal of the statue this week.
"Especially now that a document has been released where he has
admitted to it, I don't think that someone like that should be
placed on a pedestal, especially where people bring their
families,” Gavrilova told WESH.
Gavrilova had posted a petition on Change.org several months ago
calling for the bust's removal.
The statue was part of the theme park's Academy of Television
Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame Plaza, which features busts of TV
legends such as Lucille Ball, Dick Clark, Andy Griffith, Oprah
Winfrey and Walt Disney.
Video posted by Inside the Magic early Wednesday showed an empty
pedestal where the statue had been:
