E. Jean Carroll's Rape Accusation Against Trump Goes to Trial.

A trial is set to begin on Tuesday in New York City on E. Jean Carroll's civil claim that Donald Trump raped her in a department store in the 1990s. Carroll, a magazine writer and columnist, alleges that Trump "seized" her, "forced her up against a dressing room wall, pinned her in place with his shoulder, and raped her." Trump has called her allegations "a con job," a "hoax" and "a complete scam," which led Carroll to sue him for defamation. Trump maintains his comments aren't defamatory and are the truth.
