Get ready for Bill Cosby to be back in the headlines as the date nears for his trial on charges of drugging and sexually molesting a woman in his Pennsylvania mansion in 2004.

Jury selection begins next month for the disgraced comedy star’s June trial in Pittsburgh. Cosby, 79, has pleaded not guilty to charges of assaulting former Temple University employee Andrea Constand.

As we all know, Constand is just one of more than 50 women who have accused the star of sexual abuse and harassment over more than four decades.

Perhaps the pending trial has prompted the youngest of Cosby’s four surviving children to mount a fierce and unexpected defense, the Daily News is reported. Perhaps Evin Cosby’s Facebook post Wednesday amounts to a pre-emptive strike.

Whatever prompted Evin’s lengthy post, which she shares to her father’s account, she blasts the “public persecution” of him as well as “the cruelty of the media and those who speak out branding my father a ‘rapist’ without ever knowing the truth.”

Evin is the youngest of four daughters Cosby had with Camille Cosby, his wife of 53 years. The couple’s son, Ennis, was murdered in 1997 while changing a flat tire on the side of a Los Angeles freeway.

Evin refers to the “harsh and hurtful accusations of things that supposedly happened 40 or 50 years ago, before I was born, in another lifetime.” She says these accusations have been “carelessly repeated as truth without allowing my dad to defend himself.” She said the allegations haven’t just hurt her father but “everyone one of us.”

And then Evin draws on a common strategy for daughters defending their famous fathers against allegations of saying or doing demeaning things to women. (Ivanka Trump anyone?)

Evin says she knows her father is a good man because he is good to her, and her mothers and sisters. “He loves me, my sisters and my mother.”

Based on her own personal experience, Evin can therefore declare that her father “loves and respects women.”

She added, “He is not abusive, violent or a rapist.”

She added that in his landmark family sitcom, “The Cosby Show,” Cosby broke barriers and “raised the conscious of America on important topics, including the advancement of women.” On the show, he only depicted women who “smart and accomplished,” she said.

Evin Cosby previously spoke out in her father’s defense in 2014, as the allegations against him began to reach a critical mass. Again referring to Cosby’s role as the wise and understanding patriarch on “The Cosby Show,” Evin said: “He is the FATHER you thought you knew. The Cosby Show was my today’s TV reality show.”
