A woman who appeared with Bill Cosby on an educational children's TV show as a teenager has sued saying he defamed her after she gave an interview claiming he sexually abused her in the 1980s. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday by 48-year-old Renita Hill, of Baldwin, a Pittsburgh suburb, says the incidents occurred while Cosby helped pay for her college tuition and housing until she broke off contact with him in 1987.
