SANTA MONICA, Calif. : Closing arguments began on Wednesday in a civil trial against Bill Cosby, with his accuser's attorney arguing she had provided sufficient evidence of a sexual assault at the Playboy Mansion in 1975 and should receive damages for emotional distress.

"Four years of misery. What is that worth to someone? $1 million a year? $2 million a year?" he said.The actor and comedian has not appeared in person at the trial, but jurors were shown a roughly 10-minute video of Cosby answering questions from one of Huth's attorneys during a deposition in 2015. In cross-examination of Huth, Cosby attorney Jennifer Bonjean challenged her account, including her revised timeline.

The civil trial in California took place 11 months after Cosby was freed from prison when Pennsylvania's highest court threw out his sexual assault conviction in a different case.
