Trump Liable says Jury

Well, I can't say I'm surprise, and I can't say I don't think he didn't do it. I will say that he didn't do himself any favors during the deposition and he probably should have shown up to court.

Trump found liable for sexual abuse, defamation in E. Jean Carroll case, ordered to pay $5M in damages (https://nypost.com/2023/05/09/trump-must-pay-e-jean-carroll-tktk-after-found-liable-of-rape/)

While jurors rejected Carroll’s claim in her 2019 suit that Trump had raped her, they found him liable for sexual abuse. Carroll had accused Trump of attacking her in a fitting room at the Fifth Avenue department store, most likely in 1996. He has denied her allegations.

Isn't that the entire basis for the whole thing? If no rape then no further claim. She brought up the allegation in print in the first place and then complained when he denied it. Only in NY... Move the thing to WV and get a completely different outcome.
