Description | A federal jury in New York on Tuesday found former President Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing and forcibly touching the writer E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s, and of defaming her last fall when he accused her of making up that account.
The jury awarded Carroll $5 million in compensatory and punitive damages.
Trump cannot be prosecuted for the alleged rape because the statute of limitations for such a crime has long since passed. |
