After Donald Trump was found liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll, his legal team and his defenders lodged a frequent talking point.
Despite Carroll’s claims that Trump had raped her, they noted, the jury stopped short of saying he committed that particular offense. Instead, jurors opted for a second option: sexual abuse.
“This was a rape claim, this was a rape case all along, and the jury rejected that — made other findings,” his lawyer, Joe Tacopina, said outside the courthouse.
A judge has now clarified that this is basically a legal distinction without a real-world difference. He says that what the jury found Trump did was in fact rape, as commonly understood.
so **** stupid.
Things the jury was not allowed to hear:
Carroll had made the same exact claim, accusing 3 other rich men. She lost all 3 claims in court.
That Carroll's entire case was an exact copy of her favorite TV show, Law & Order SVU. Including the same store and dressing room.
