Supreme Court Upholds $5 Million Verdict Against Trump in Carroll Case

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear Donald Trump's appeal regarding a $5 million verdict awarded to E. Jean Carroll, affirming the jury's unanimous decision that Trump sexually abused and defamed her. Carroll's lawsuits stem from incidents in the mid-1990s, with the first defamation case initiated in 2019 and a subsequent battery case in 2022. The total financial liability for Trump now exceeds $100 million, including interest from a second trial that resulted in an $83 million judgment. Carroll's attorney emphasized the importance of this ruling in holding Trump accountable for his actions, while Trump's legal team continues to contest the verdicts, claiming they are politically motivated. Carroll is expected to receive the awarded amount soon, as Trump has already transferred funds to a court-controlled account.
