Trump's Legal Woes Escalate After Sexual Abuse Verdict.

Former US President Donald Trump's legal troubles are mounting as investigations against him are increasing. He has been ordered to pay $5m in damages for sexual abuse and defamation of writer E Jean Carroll. Indictments in conservative Georgia are coming down the line and many of the key witnesses against Trump will be his fellow Republicans, including some who helped him try to rig the 2020 election. Similarly, investigations by a justice department special counsel into Trump’s actions leading up to the 6 January 2021 storming of the Capitol, and the stashing of classified documents at his Florida mansion, are being built on the accounts of aides and political associates who are potential witnesses against him.
