Re: Trump Organization Found Guilty Of Tax Fraud At Trial
Quote:
Donald Trump sexually abused writer E Jean Carroll, civil trial jury finds
Donald Trump has been found liable of battery and defamation, after a civil trial jury found he sexually abused writer E Jean Carroll.
The jury rejected the rape claim but awarded her $5m in damages.
The nine-person jury began discussing the battery and defamation lawsuit on Tuesday and deliberated for just under three hours.
Ms Carroll, 79, had claimed that the former US president raped her in a department store changing room in Manhattan in the mid-1990s.
She said he defamed her by claiming she made up the story and was seeking compensation and punitive damages.
Mr Trump, who did not attend the trial, has insisted he never sexually assaulted Ms Carroll or even knew her.
