Kristina Ruehli, 77, has told the story of her experience with Bill Cosby many times over the years - including to Andrea Constand's lawyers in 2005, when she became one of the Jane Doe accusers who said they would support Constand's story of allegedly being drugged and sexually assaulted by Cosby in 2004, should the lawsuit have gone to trial.

Since Cosby settled with Constand in 2006, for an amount later revealed to be nearly US$3.4 million (RM14.13mil), Ruehli never did testify in court. But during the flood of accusations against Cosby in 2014, when 60 women came forward with similar allegations about the comedian's sexual predations, Ruehli did publicly accused him, first in an interview with Philadelphia Magazine, and later appearing on CNN and elsewhere.
