 Bill Cosby’s wife underwent questioning that was at times contentious during a deposition in February involving a defamation case involving her husband. 
 
 But Camille Cosby gave few answers in the six-hour-long deposition, often invoking spousal privilege and at times refusing to answer questions altogether, according to a transcript released Friday. 
 
 "I’m done,” Camille Cosby said at one point in reply to a question. At another time, she left the room where the Feb. 22 deposition was taking place. 
 
 The deposition was conducted as part of a defamation suit filed against Bill Cosby by seven women who say they were portrayed as liars after accusing the comedian of sexual assault. Camille Cosby is not named in the suit. Bill Cosby has counter-sued the seven women who filed suit, also alleging defamation. 
 
 Camille Cosby was read sections of her husband's 2005 deposition where he said he "had sex and we had dinners and sex and rendezvous" with Beth Farrier in the 1970s. 
 
 However, when asked repeatedly if she thought her husband was being deceitful, or whether or not she had an opinion on whether Bill Cosby deceived her, Camille Cosby invoked marital privilege or said she had no opinion. 
 
 When asked about honesty and what it means, Camille Cosby answered: "I'm not going to expound on this." When she was told she had to, she answered: "I do not have to. I'm done." 
 
 Camille Cosby also refused to answer in the deposition whether or not it is a dishonest act or whether or not it is deceitful to give Quaaludes to someone for the purposes of sex.

 About 50 women have publicly accused Bill Cosby of sexual misconduct going back decades. Cosby and his representatives have repeatedly denied the allegations. 
 
 Bill Cosby faces a criminal case in Pennsylvania for allegedly drugging and molesting a former Temple University employee in 2004. Bill Cosby has not yet entered a plea in that case, but his attorneys have said he is innocent of the charges. The woman in that case is not part of the defamation suit. 
 
 Camille Cosby invoked spousal privilege in the February deposition when asked whether or not her husband has been truthful with her. 
 
 She did say she never obtained Quaaludes for her own use or someone else's use. 
 
 She was asked by an opposing attorney, "now, can we agree that throughout your marriage, Mr. Cosby acted with a lack of integrity?" 
 
 Camille's attorney, Monique Pressley, interjected immediately and instructed Camille Cosby that she did not have to answer that question or any others related to conversations with her husband. Camille Cosby replied: "And I won't."

 When asked if she had an opinion on whether Bill Cosby acted with a lack of integrity, Camille Cosby said she wouldn’t answer. 
 
 Camille said she rarely watched television or read newspapers and when asked if "all of the information that you have regarding the sexual allegations against your husband came from conversation — whether conversations with your husband or conversations with counsel,” Camille said, "That is correct. That's my answer." 
 
 Camille also said that she has no understanding and is unaware of what her husband said in the 2005 deposition where Bill Cosby said he obtained Quaaludes to give to women he wanted to have sex with. 
 
 The lawyer for the seven women suing Cosby for defamation, Joseph Cammarata, asked her about Shawn Thompson, a woman who said Bill Cosby fathered her daughter, Autumn Jackson, in the 1970s. 
 
 Jackson was convicted in 1997 of attempting to extort money from Bill Cosby to prevent her from telling a tabloid she's his daughter. He acknowledged he had an affair with her mother and had given her money. 
 
 Camille Cosby said that Autumn Jackson is not Bill Cosby's daughter and that she is confident about that "because there was a test, a DNA test."

 Camille said, "I do not have an opinion." However, later she said, "it was a big deal then, yes" when it was revealed that in the 1970s Bill Cosby had extramarital affairs. 
 
 Camille Cosby was also questioned on April 19, but that transcript has not been released. Her lawyers argued unsuccessfully to stop the deposition, which a judge ruled she would have to givebut said she could refuse to answer questions about private communications between her and her husband. 
 
 An attorney handling a separate lawsuit against Bill Cosby revealed Friday that Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner provided sworn testimony Wednesday. 
 
 In the sexual battery lawsuit filed in Los Angeles, Judy Huth says Cosby forced her to perform a sex act on him at the Playboy Mansion around 1974, when she was 15. 
 
 Bill Cosby's former lawyers have accused Huth of attempting to extort him before filing the case and have tried unsuccessfully to have it dismissed. Huth's attorney, Gloria Allred, said Hefner's testimony will remain under seal for now. 
 
 Hefner also was named as a defendant in a case filed Monday by former model Chloe Goins, who accuses Bill Cosby of drugging and sexually abusing her at the Playboy Mansion in 2008. ||||| Camille Cosby’s February deposition in a defamation case brought by several women who have previously accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault was combative. 
 
 A transcript of the deposition, made public today, shows that, from the start, Camille Cosby refused to answer a number of questions she deemed personal and off-limits. 
 
 In total, the deposition lasted about eight hours, but included frequent breaks and interruptions. Joseph Cammarata, a lawyer for the women, previously said that her testimony lasted two-and-a-half hours. 
 
 “That’s communication between my husband and me and that is it," she told lawyers at one point. 
 
 Prior to Camille Cosby's deposition, a judge ruled that she did not have to answer questions protected by the marital disqualification rule. According to Cammarata, Camille Cosby evoked the marital disqualification rule more than a dozen times. 
 
 The transcript reveals that the questions she faced were intense. 
 
 At one point she was asked “Now, can we agree that throughout your marriage that your husband betrayed the sanctity of your marital home?” A moment later, she faced this question: “Would you agree that throughout your marriage Mr. Cosby used his position, power to manipulate young women?” 
 
 In that instance, Camille Cosby was instructed by her lawyer not to answer. 
 
 Two months after that first deposition, Camille Cosby was deposed a second time, according to attorneys for her and her husband. 
 
 In a statement obtained by ABC News at the time, lawyers Dan Small and Monique Pressley, who represent Camille and Bill Cosby respectively, said that the comedian's wife had "no relevant non-privileged information to offer in this case." 
 
 "Mrs. Cosby was able to persevere and cooperate in today's proceedings to the best of her abilities," they continued. "We are thankful for this distraction to now be over."

 A few days before a second pre-trial hearing in Bill Cosby's sexual-assault case, he was reminded of his many accusers pursuing him in civil court thanks to developments Friday. 
 
 In Massachusetts, a newly released transcript shows that Cosby's wife Camille refused to answer dozens of questions during a combative February deposition in connection with a defamation lawsuit filed by seven of her husband's accusers in federal court in Springfield, near where the Cosbys have a home. 
 
 In Los Angeles, Gloria Allred, who represents an accuser suing Cosby for sexual battery, said Friday she took a deposition from Hugh Hefner on Wednesday at the Playboy Mansion, but the contents of the testimony were sealed. Hefner gave the deposition in a case filed by Judy Huth, who alleges Cosby forced her to perform a sex act on him around 1974 at Hefner's mansion. 
 
 And on Monday in Los Angeles, yet another accuser, who also claims she was sexually assaulted by Cosby at the Playboy Mansion in 2008, sued Cosby and Hefner, asserting that Hefner was an enabler who knew what his friend Cosby was doing to women at the mansion or should have known it.

 In Massachusetts, Camille Cosby testified that she had no knowledge that her husband allegedly gave women drugs and had sex with them, according to a transcript of her deposition released Friday. 
 
 Camille Cosby strongly resisted being deposed and her husband's legal team tried to stop it. But she was compelled by a federal judge anyway, although he confirmed her right to not answer any questions that violated her marital privilege. 
 
 The deposition took place over two days in Boston; the transcript released Friday covers only the first day. 
 
 It was clear in February that Camille Cosby's deposition had been strained, in part because the lawyers acknowledged it after the first day ended and a second day had to be scheduled. 
 
 She refused to answer many times and the judge had to be called to rule on whether she had to. The transcript shows the back-and-forth between her and her lawyers and the accusers' lawyer, Joe Cammarata.

 She was subjected to intense questioning by Cammarata, who represents seven women who claim the comedian, through his lawyers, branded them as liars after they came forward in late 2014 with accusations that he drugged and/or raped them in episodes dating back decades. 
 
 Among other questions, Cammarata asked her whether her husband "acted with a lack of integrity" during their 52-year marriage. She also was asked if her husband used his position and power "to manipulate young women." 
 
 She refused to answer those questions after her lawyer cited marital privilege, the legal rule that communications between spouses are private.

 Although discovery and depositions are continuing in the various civil suits against him, none of it involves Cosby himself yet. Legal motions involving him have been put on temporary hold until the resolution of the sole criminal case against him, in Montgomery County, Pa., outside Philadelphia, where the Cosbys also have a home. 
 
 On Tuesday, Cosby is scheduled to appear for a second pre-trial hearing on felony sexual assault charges stemming from an encounter at his home with ex-Temple University employee Andrea Constand in 2004. Constand said Cosby drugged and raped her; Cosby said the encounter was consensual. 
 
 Cosby's legal team is trying to get the criminal charges thrown out on the grounds that he was promised immunity in the case from a former district attorney. So far, his lawyers have failed to persuade the Pennsylvania judge. 
 
 Nearly 60 women have accused Cosby of forcing unwanted sexual contact on them in encounters dating back to the mid-1960s. Cosby has denied the allegations.

– Camille Cosby refused to answer dozens of questions about her famous husband during two days of deposition back in February, USA Today reports. According to ABC News, a transcript of the deposition released Friday shows Camille cited "spousal privilege" in her refusal to answer questions more than a dozen times alone. Other times she refused without giving a reason or just left the room, NBC News reports. The deposition was part of a defamation suit against Bill Cosby brought by seven women who accused him of sexual assault and say they were branded liars in response. Bill has countersued them for defamation, as well. The Cosbys' legal team had tried to get Camille out of the deposition, but a federal judge insisted. Among the questions Camille refused to answer: what honesty means, if Bill "acted with a lack of integrity," if it is "dishonest" or "deceitful" to give Quaaludes to someone in order to have sex with them, if Bill used his status to "manipulate young women, and if Bill "betrayed the sanctity of [her] marital home." She did say she had no idea Bill allegedly gave drugs to women and had sex with them throughout their 52 years of marriage. ABC describes the eights hours total of deposition—during which Camille was read parts of a 2005 deposition in which Bill talked about having sex with one of his accusers in the 1970s—as "combative."
