LOS ANGELES, Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Chloe Goins, a 24-year-old model who says Bill Cosby assaulted her in 2008, met with Los Angeles Police Department detectives on Wednesday to discuss filing criminal charges.

More than two dozen women have accused the 77-year-old comedian of sexual assault, but Goins could be the first woman whose claims fall within California's statue of limitations, depending on the specific charge.

Goins' attorney, Spencer Kuvin, told reporters outside LAPD headquarters that his client spoke with detectives for two hours.

Kuvin said the alleged assault took place at the Playboy Mansion in 2008, when Goins was 18, but he would not elaborate further.

"She was drugged. She doesn't know what happened, she blacked out and woke up finding Mr. Cosby over her as she was in a state of complete undress," Kuvin said. "I don't want to go into details about what he was doing, and I don't believe any of these cameras can actually publish what he was doing."

Goins told The Daily Mail last December that Hugh Hefner introduced her to Cosby, who brought her a drink.

"Everything kind of went a little foggy, I started feeling sick to my stomach, and just dizzy," she said.

Goins said she woke up in one of Hefner's spare bedrooms with Cosby licking her toes and masturbating.

Cosby's lawyer, Martin Singer, has yet to respond specifically to Goins' claims, though he said in a statement last November that accusations against the comedian were "becoming increasingly ridiculous."

There has never been a shortage of lawyers willing to represent people with claims against rich, powerful men, so it makes no sense that not one of these new women who just came forward for the first time now ever asserted a legal claim back at the time they alleged they had been sexually assaulted.
