A New York jury on Tuesday found former US President Donald Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation against advice columnist E. Jean Carroll. He was ordered to pay $5 million (€4.56 million) in compensation and fines in the civil lawsuit. However, the jury rejected Carroll's claim that Trump sexually assaulted her in 1996.

During the two-weeklong trial, Carroll testified that Trump had sexually assaulted her in a fitting room at a luxury Manhattan store. She said he then harmed her reputation by writing in a post on his platform Truth Social in 2022 that her allegations were a "complete con job," "a hoax" and "a lie."

How did Trump respond?
Trump has insisted that he did not assault Carroll or even know her. He did not attend the trial. The former president, who is seeking a run for the White House in 2024, said the verdict was a "disgrace," and again claimed it was part of a political "witch hunt" against him. Trump has previously cited the trial in campaign fundraising emails as evidence of what he describes as a Democratic attempt to destroy him politically. In March, he was indicted over hush money payments to an adult film star before his 2016 presidential election victory. His poll number improved after the indictment, which made his the first former US president to be criminally charged.
