Breaking news: Former President Trump has been ordered to pay $83 million in defamation case! Details inside!
In a dramatic turn of events, a jury has ruled that former President Donald Trump must pay $83.3 million in damages to columnist E. Jean Carroll for defamation. This adds to the $5 million Trump was previously ordered to pay for a separate instance of defamation. Trump, who left the courtroom during closing arguments, has expressed plans to appeal the verdict.
The verdict came after intense trial proceedings where Trump was accused of damaging Carroll's reputation. Despite the hefty sum, Trump's lawyer challenged Carroll's credibility, questioning the title of one of her books during the trial. The legal battle has garnered significant attention, with Carroll's attorney emphasizing the importance of holding individuals accountable for their actions.
In a parallel development, Trump's nemesis and lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, played a key role in Carroll's legal fight. Kaplan, known for her landmark Supreme Court case victories, took on Trump in a battle over sexual abuse allegations. Additionally, prominent figures like Nikki Haley criticized Trump following the stunning $83 million verdict, signaling a shift in public perception.
As the legal saga unfolds, it serves as a reminder that accountability and justice are paramount. The case highlights the risks of defamation and the significance of speaking out against abuse and misconduct. With the substantial damages awarded, the impact of the verdict reverberates across the political and legal landscape, shaping discussions on ethics and accountability in public life.
This is the second time Trump has been ordered pay Carroll. Last year he was mandated by a jury to pay $5 million for a separate instance of defamation.
