Trump Refuses to Testify in New York Rape and Defamation Trial.
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump rejected the opportunity to testify at a civil trial where E. Jean Carroll, a longtime advice columnist, has accused him of raping her in a luxury department store dressing room in 1996. Trump has not shown up once during the two-week Manhattan trial where Carroll testified for several days, repeating claims she first made publicly in a 2019 memoir. Without Trump’s testimony, lawyers were scheduled to make closing arguments Monday, with deliberations likely to begin on Tuesday.
