Trump faces civil trial over rape accusation by E. Jean Carroll.
TL;DR Summary
Former US President Donald Trump is set to face a civil trial on allegations that he raped E. Jean Carroll, a writer and former magazine columnist, nearly three decades ago. The trial, which is set to begin on Tuesday, comes at a moment of immense legal and investigative scrutiny for the former president. Carroll said Trump raped her in the mid-1990s, years before he became president. Trump has repeatedly denied her allegations and called her a liar, and Carroll filed lawsuits accusing him of defamation and battery. The Carroll case marks the third time in a month that Trump may be in New York City for a legal proceeding.
