A federal jury in New York has reached a verdict in the civil lawsuit accusing former President Donald Trump of battery and defamation.
After Trump was told of mistaking the women during his deposition, he said the photo was"blurry."
Carroll, then 52, said Trump, then 50, wanted advice on a gift purchase for a girl. She described pleasant,"joshing" banter as they perused the store, even after he suggested they go to the lingerie department. Carroll said Trump pushed her against the wall, her head slamming against it. She said Trump forcefully penetrated her with his hand, causing severe pain, and then penetrated her with his penis.
She said she told two other people about the alleged attack soon after, her friends Lisa Birnbach and Carol Martin. Both were called to testify during the trial, delivering testimony that largely matched Carroll's recollection.
