Model Chloe Goins, 24, brought allegations to Los Angeles
police that Cosby had drugged and assaulted her in 2008 when she
was aged 18, at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles County District Attorney spokeswoman Jane Robison
said the sex crimes division is reviewing the material handed
over Wednesday by detectives who were investigating Goins's
case. She did not say when prosecutors would decide whether to
file charges against Cosby.
A police spokesman confirmed that investigators presented a case
to prosecutors, but he declined to comment further.
A representative for Cosby declined to comment on Thursday.
Veteran comedian Cosby, best known for the sitcom "The Cosby
Show", has been accused by more than 50 women of sexual assault
in incidents dating back to the 1960s that fall outside the
statute of limitations for criminal or civil cases.
Cosby's lawyers have repeatedly in the past denied any
wrongdoing on his part.
He is scheduled to give a deposition Oct. 9 in the civil lawsuit
brought by a woman, Judy Huth, accusing the comedian of sexually
abusing her at the Playboy Mansion in 1974 when she was 15 years
old.
On Wednesday, three more women said Cosby drugging and sexually
assaulting them in incidents.
