Former president Donald Trump has been found liable for sexually abusing writer E. Jean Carroll and then defaming her when she came forward decades later, a jury decided Tuesday.
The New York jury rejected Carroll’s claim that Trump raped her but agreed with the rest of her civil case against the former U.S. president, dealing him another legal setback as he seeks a political comeback.
The jury awarded Carroll just under US $5 million in total damages.
Jurors were required to reach a unanimous verdict after a seven-day civil trial, which Trump did not attend. He was not present when the verdict was read.
