NEW YORK - E. Jean Carroll’s accusation that Donald Trump raped her was not a “he said, she said” dispute, a lawyer representing the writer told jurors on Tuesday as a civil trial over the former US president’s conduct nearly three decades ago got under way.
“This is not a ‘he said, she said’ case,” Ms Crowley said in federal court in Manhattan. She told jurors they would also hear testimony from two other women who say Trump sexually assaulted them, which he denies. Mr Tacopina also asked jurors in strongly Democratic Manhattan to set aside their feelings for Trump, a Republican and former New Yorker who has inspired strong opinions from across the political spectrum.Earlier in the day, US District Judge Lewis Kaplan sat nine jurors who will decidein the mid-1990s and defamed her by denying it happened.
Carroll, 79, is seeking unspecified damages for pain and suffering, psychological harm and invasion of privacy.
