Beth Ferrier is one of the original 12 Jane Does from Andrea Constand’s 2005 civil suit against the now infamous Bill Cosby. Cosby was arrested for allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting Constand more than a decade ago in Dec 2015.
Beth Ferrier is just one of the now more than 60 women, who have come forward and have accused the TV personality of drugging and/or sexually assaulting them. Bill Cosby to this day has maintained his innocence.
We stand with Beth Ferrier and all survivors and were delighted when when she trusted us to come to us for support. She stands with Impeach Persky and Solidarity4Survivors and showed her support by sending us a survivor selfie. Beth now has a new fight, which is to get Governor Jerry Brown to sign a bill that will ABOLISH the Statute of limitations on sexual assault. For more information visit the website below.

Governor Brown has just 13 days left to sign this bill or it dies. Even though Ferrier and others have repeatedly tried to contact him, they have yet to receive a response.
We are fighting with Beth now in an attempt to abolish the statute of limitations on sexual assault as it punishes survivors for not reporting due to fear, stigma, and victim blaming.
Beth, Sharika and I need your help to pressure this Governor into signing this much needed law.. Please email and Tweet Governor Brown. The paper work for the bill is already on his desk approved by the house and senate, all he has to do is sign the paperwork.
We are no stranger to dealing with politicians who are hard to get hold of which is why donations, phone calls, emails and tweets are so important to this cause. He may be able to ignore the three of us but he cannot ignore all of your voices. There are a lot of survivors being affected by these laws that do not protect the survivor. Protests and sit in’s are no longer a an option they are must. Beth, Sharika and I urgently need your help. The politicians will ignore us if they can. We cannot allow them too.
Please donate to our gofundme campaign. Tweet, call and email Governor Brown. Call the Assembly members and CC Brown urging them to please act now.
