Actresses, flight attendant come forward with stories of abuse

Bill Cosby is facing new accusations of sexual misconduct from three women.

The latest accusers, who like several of the more than 30 women who have come forward as alleged victims are represented by star attorney Gloria Allred, are an actress who worked on "The Cosby Show," another who appeared in a Charles Bronson action movie and a former flight attendant.

Eden Tirl, Linda Ridgeway and Colleen Hughes told their stories at Allred's offices. Last week, a judge ordered the comedian must be deposed in a lawsuit that alleges he sexually abused a 15-year-old girl at the Playboy mansion in 1974.

 The order "states that Cosby will submit to questions under oath from the lawyer of his accuser, Judy Huth, on Oct. 9, and that she will answer questions from his attorneys on Oct. 15"
