During Tuesday’s episode of MSNBC’s “All In With Chris Hayes,” the host spent some time discussing the civil trial verdict against Donald Trump earlier in the day. And as he kicked that off, Hayes paid tribute to what he said was the “incredible act of real persistence of E. Jean Carroll.”
Carroll sued the disgraced, twice-impeached former president for sexual battery and defamation. On Tuesday afternoon, after only 3 hours of deliberation, the jury turned in a unanimous verdict. While they didn’t find Trump guilty of rape, the jury did find him guilty of sexually assaulting Carroll, and of defaming her after she came forward to report the assault.
Trump has been ordered to pay Carroll $5 million.

Donald Trump has been found liable for defamation and battery of E. Jean Carroll, a jury found after deliberating for only a few hours on Tuesday.

An October 2022 video of Donald Trump being interrogated about the rape allegations against him was made public on Friday. Jurors involved in the E. Jean Carroll civil battery and defamation trial had access to written transcripts of the former president’s testimony but not the recording.
In the video deposition, Trump affirmed that he previously made official statements that he did not know Carroll, described her allegations that he raped her in a department store dressing room in the mid-90s as a “hoax” and “a false, disgusting lie” and said she was “not his type.” He also called Carroll several names, including “nut job” and “mentally sick.”

In 2016, businesswoman Jessica Leeds described to The New York Times how Donald Trump groped her non-consensually during a 1979 flight to New York City. On Tuesday, Leeds recounted her story under oath as a witness on behalf of E. Jean Carroll, who has accused the former president of raping her in a department store dressing room in the ‘90s.
Leeds told the jury how she was upgraded from her seat in coach to the flight’s first-class cabin, and was seated next to Trump. “Out of the blue” she recalled, “Trump...

A federal judge has ruled that notorious Access Hollywood tape, in which former President Donald Trump brags about groping women, can be admitted as evidence in the civil rape lawsuit brought against him by author E. Jean Carroll.
“In this case, a jury reasonably could find […] that Mr. Trump admitted in the Access Hollywood tape that he in fact has had contact with women’s genitalia in the past without their consent, or that he has attempted to do so,” wrote U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in his opinion.

E. Jean Carroll, the writer who accused Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her over 20 years ago — and later sued the president for “smearing” her reputation following the allegations — will profile other Trump accusers as part of a new series for The Atlantic.
“Nineteen, or 25, or 43 women have come forward to accuse Trump of ogling, grabbing, groping, mauling, or raping them,” Carroll writes in her introductory essay. “The women say they dodged, ran, froze, ducked, resisted, or laughed at him; and we all stood up, spoke out, got dragged through the mud,...
