Trump's Video Deposition in Civil Rape Trial Raises Eyebrows.
TL;DR Summary
Lawyers for E. Jean Carroll rested her civil case against Donald Trump on Thursday, shortly after jurors were shown a deposition video of the former president confusing the accuser with his ex-wife Marla Maples. Trump's lawyers said he will not testify and that they are not putting on any witnesses. Carroll has sued Trump for battery and defamation, charging he raped her in the dressing room of a Manhattan department store in the 1990s and then falsely accused her of concocting a "hoax" after she went public with her claim in 2019.
