Former President Trump will not present a defense case in his civil trial on allegations he raped writer E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s, his attorney told the judge presiding over the case.
in New York allowed a one-year window for adult victims of sexual offenses to file civil suits, even if the statute of limitations on their claims had expired, as it had for Carroll., a former People magazine reporter who has claimed Trump accosted her in late 2005 while she was working on a story about him and his family at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
She said she was preparing to interview the couple when Melania Trump had to change clothes from the photo shoot for the story. After his wife stepped away, Stoynoff said, Trump offered to show her a"great room" in the estate. She said the attack went on for"a few minutes" until they were interrupted by a butler who told them:"Melania is done changing, and it is time to come back."Stoynoff said she interviewed the couple on"auto-pilot" and asked to be taken off the Trump beat at the magazine afterward.
