Trump Found Liable for Sexual Abuse and Defamation in E. Jean Carroll Case.
TL;DR
Following the federal jury's verdict that found former President Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, Trump continued to criticize Carroll and the case on social media, calling her accusations false and fabricated. He also criticized Judge Lewis A. Kaplan, who presided over the case. The jury awarded Carroll $5 million in total damages, of which just under $3 million was related to defamation.
