Deadline reported on Wednesday that Bill Cosby’s talent agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), no longer represents the comic, who continues to face allegations of rape from dozens of women.

“We do not represent him at this time,” one CAA official told Deadline in an article published Wednesday.

Although Cosby is still listed as a client of CAA on IMDB.com, the agency ditched him before the latest revelations that in 2005, the comedian admitted in a sworn deposition to obtaining Quaaludes to sexually assault women.

According to the site, the star parted ways with the agency sometime late last year, around the time that new questions had emerged about Cosby’s history with women and several more accusers stepped forward.
