Amid a slew of allegations against Bill Cosby, another woman has come forward claiming that the comedian and actor sexually assaulted her. Therese Serignese, a 57-year-old registered nurse from Boca Raton, Florida, reached out to The Huffington Post to tell her story, 38 years after she says she was raped by Cosby.

She claims Cosby offered her pills at an afterparty for one of his standup sets in 1976. She was 19-years-old at the time.

“I took them, didn’t know what they were didn’t even ask. I just was intimidated I guess and I took them,” Serignese told WPTV in an interview. “Then my next memory is feeling drugged and him having sex with me.”

Serignese ended up living in Cosby’s penthouse for weeks, and taking him up on an offer to pay her $500 to go to school and earn good grades. In the end, she collected $10,000 from Cosby, according to the Mail.
