Donald Trump Found Guilt Of Sexual Molestation

A New York jury concluded Donald Trump sexually molested advice author E Jean Carroll in a New York department store changing room 27 years ago on Tuesday.

The decision was read aloud in a federal court in Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon, just hours after jurors began deliberating during a seven-day civil trial.

Trump also hurt advice columnist Carroll in a Manhattan Bergdorf Goodman dressing room and defamed her when he branded her a liar, according to the panel of six men and three women.

Carroll received over $5 million in compensation and punitive damages: approximately $2 million for sexual abuse and nearly $3 million for defamation, for branding her a liar.

After only three hours of discussion, they concluded that the evidence did not support Trump’s claim of rping her. However, he was found guilty of s*ual abuse.

Carroll said as she was led to a car after the verdict, “We’re very happy.”

Trump’s spokesman, Steven Cheung, indicated on Tuesday that the former president would file an appeal. That is, he will not be required to pay the awarded damages as long as the case is under appeal.

Carroll accused the former US president of s**ually abusing her in a New York City department store in the mid-1990s and then slandering her in a 2019 memoir as a “con job.”

In an all-caps post on Trump’s social networking program Truth Social, he said, “I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHO THIS WOMAN IS. THIS VERDICT IS A DISGRACE – A CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!”

Donald Trump has been accused of several s**ual misconduct or assault, by more than two dozen women, but this has so far been the only case to end up before a jury, casting another shadow over the United States’ 45th president’s 2024 Presidential campaign.
