In an ongoing legal dispute, Donald Trump, the former President, has initiated a counterclaim against E. Jean Carroll, alleging defamation. This comes after a jury held him responsible for sexually abusing and defaming Carroll, albeit not for the charge of rape.
Trump’s counterclaim is based on Carroll’s remarks made on CNN, where she asserted that he had raped her, despite the jury’s previous determination.
Seeking a retraction and unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, Trump and Carroll continue to engage in a contentious legal battle, trading allegations and denials through media outlets.
Trump is presently appealing the jury’s verdict, while Carroll has pursued additional damages.
