Former President Donald Trump has been found liable for sexually abusing Elle magazine columnist E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s and defaming her by denying it. The jury awarded Carroll $5 million in damages but did not find that Trump raped her. Trump’s lawyers claimed the allegations were a cooked-up plot and that her friends who testified plotted to hurt him because they hated him politically. Carroll’s lawyers argued that their willingness to bring the case to court made them more believable. In addition to live witness testimony, jurors heard deposition video from Trump where he denied the rape. Two other women who accused Trump of sexual assault also testified.
