Filmmaker Ivy Meeropol says E. Jean Carroll is more than the woman who accused Donald Trump, aiming to portray her as a barrier-breaking journalist with a distinctive voice in a forthcoming documentary.
The documentary 'Ask E. Jean' profiles journalist and Trump accuser E. Jean Carroll, highlighting her personality, her legal battle against Trump, and her broader life story, offering a sympathetic and nuanced portrait beyond her role as a victim, despite some flaws in the film's scope and tone.
The D.C. federal prosecutor's office is investigating allegations that local police manipulated crime data to create a false sense of safety, amid claims that crime numbers were faked to appear lower, despite official reports showing a 30-year low in violent crime in 2024. Former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, leading the investigation, and local police union officials have raised concerns about data manipulation, while Trump has publicly accused D.C. officials of falsifying crime statistics to deceive the public.
