E. Jean Carroll, a former columnist for Elle magazine, told Wednesday in Manhattan federal court how Donald Trump raped her in the 1990s. Charges firmly denied by the former US president.
An author on Wednesday April 26 accused the former American president Donald Trump of having raped him almost 30 years ago, during a civil trial in New York.
“I’m here because Donald Trump raped me, and when I wrote about (that rape), he lied and said it never happened,” E. Jean Carroll said in federal court. Manhattan. “He lied and ruined my reputation, and I’m here to try to get my life back together.”
E. Jean Carroll, a 79-year-old former Elle magazine columnist, is seeking reparations from Donald Trump, the 76-year-old Republican Party’s 2024 presidential candidate.
Her lawsuit relates to a supposed encounter in New York in late 1995 or early 1996, where E. Jean Carroll claims Donald Trump raped her before she managed to flee.
According to her account, the then-all-New York businessman and celebrity recognizes her as she writes a column in Elle, “Ask E. Jean.” He invites her in a very playful tone to help him choose a present. In the lingerie department, Donald Trump grabs an “undergarment” and asks her to try it on.
