A federal judge in New York has rejected former Pres. Trump's counterclaim against writer E. Jean Carroll, who successfully sued him for defamation.
In her media appearances following the verdict, Carroll insisted that Trump had raped her despite the jury finding Carroll did not prove Trump raped her as the term is defined in New York penal law. Instead the jury found Trump "sexually abused" Carroll.
"[I]n other words, that Mr. Trump in fact did 'rape' Ms. Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contexts outside New York Penal Law," Kaplan wrote in granting Carroll's motion to dismiss Trump's counterclaim.
