On Monday, the federal judge in Trump's NY rape-defamation case ruled again in E. Jean Carroll's favor. The writer is no closer to pocketing the $5 million verdict she won from Trump in May. In a decision Monday, a federal judge in Manhattan tossed out Trump's attempt to counter-sue Carroll for defamation. In those statements, Trump called Carroll a liar, including on June 24, 2019, when he told reporters, "I'll say it with great respect: Number one, she's not my type. "E. Jean Carroll looks forward to obtaining additional compensatory and punitive damages based on the original defamatory statements Donald Trump made in 2019."
