NEW YORK CITY — A jury in a civil trial held in lower Manhattan found that former President Donald Trump sexually abused writer E. Jean Carroll in a dressing room in Bergdorf Goodman department store in the mid-1990s, and defamed her by denying the incident occurred after she went public about it in 2019.
told jurors that she was interviewing Trump and his wife Melania at their Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in 2005 when Trump led her into an empty room and forcefully kissed her.
However, when presented with a photograph from the mid-90s of himself, then-wife Ivana, Carroll and her then-husband, Trump mistakenly identified Carroll as his former wife Marla Maples, who he married after Ivana.on Monday, Kaplan reminded the jury of this mixup, citing it as proof that Carroll was"exactly his type."
“Historically, that’s true with stars,” Trump told Kaplan during the deposition. “If you look over the last million years, that’s what’s been largely true of the stars — unfortunately or fortunately.”Trump declined to testify
