Former U.S President Donald Trump found guilty of sexually abusing writer

GistReel

A New York jury on Tuesday, May 9, found former President of the United States of America Donald Trump liable Tuesday for sexually abusing and defaming an American former magazine writer, E Jean Carroll in the 1990s. Carroll had accused the former US president of sexually assaulting her in a New York City department store in the mid-1990s and then defaming her by dismissing her story told in a 2019 memoir as a “con job”.

The nine-member which awarded Ms. Carroll about $5 million in compensatory and punitive damages, however, held that the ex-president did not rape her. The jury determined that Carroll proved her sexual abuse case by a preponderance of the evidence and awarded her $2 million. The six men and three women on the jury also said Trump should pay Carroll nearly $3 million for defamation. The judgment is a huge blow to the 76-year-old’s campaign to retake the White House in 2024. The writer held hands with her lawyers as the verdict was read on Tuesday. She left the courthouse smiling and wearing sunglasses, before entering a car without speaking to reporters. Trump, who did not attend the New York trial has lashed out at the judgement, describing it as “a disgrace” and “a continuation of the greatest witch hunt of all time”. The frontrunner for the Republican nomination in next year’s presidential election wrote; “I have absolutely no idea who this woman is. This verdict is a disgrace — a continuation of the greatest witch hunt of all time!” Mr. Trump’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, told reporters the jury’s decision to rule in Carroll’s favour on the rape claim was “perplexing” and “strange”.

His spokesman, Steven Cheung, said on Tuesday that the former president would appeal. This means he will not have to pay the awarded damages so long as the verdict is being challenged in court. The former president still faces so many legal issues, including criminal charges in New York relating to a hush-money payment made to a porn star in 2016 and a Justice Department investigation into his alleged mishandling of classified documents.

El-Rufai further revealed that he won’t be returning to his former position as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory even if offered. He said; “I have done my job, I’m done, I don’t look back. In fact when I left FCT, the only time I visited FCT was in 2016 when my secondary school classmate was appointed the minister and he said he wanted to see me, so I went there. “Once I leave a job, I don’t look back. If I leave Kaduna in 19 days, I will only visit if it becomes necessary.

“So, I don’t think about the FCT. I’ve done my bit. I don’t comment on the performance of those that came after me. “Even if offered, I’m not coming to Abuja. As I say, I never repeat class and there are many young people I know that I can recommend that would do even better job than I did as minister of FCT. “I’m too old for this. I’m too old for demolition, get a young man with blood in his veins or a young woman.”
