The focus on career con man and malignant narcissist Donald "Mango Mussolini" Trump's legal woes has been heightened by the Supreme Court decision Monday to allow the Manhattan District Attorney's office to obtain his tax records. The mountain of black-and-white evidence in the form of taxes and financial statements that District Attorney Cy Vance and his expert team will possess may result in multiple counts of tax, bank, insurance and wire fraud against Trump and his associates.
Another case which has spurred major interest in the past couple of years is that of writer E. Jean Carroll, who says that Trump raped her in a dressing room at New York's Bergdorf Goodman in the mid-90s. While the statute of limitations has passed for a rape charge, Trump made the mistake of defaming Carroll and attacking her account. Now that Trump has lost the protection of the Presidency, her civil lawsuit for defamation is now moving forward, and will require Trump to testify under oath, something that should terrify his lawyers:
"[Carroll's] lawyers are seeking to depose Trump in a defamation lawsuit that Carroll filed against the former president in November 2019 after he denied her accusation that he raped her at a Manhattan department store in the mid-1990s. Trump said he never knew Carroll and accused her of lying to sell her new book, adding: 'She’s not my type.'
She plans to be there if Trump is deposed.
'I am living for the moment to walk into that room to sit across the table from him,' Carroll told Reuters in an interview. 'I think of it everyday.'” (our emphasis)
Carroll has a key piece of evidence to back up her story: she saved the dress she was wearing that day with traces of Trump's semen on it. Her attorneys are seeking a sample of Trump's DNA for a match.
Some 26 women have come forward with allegations of sexual assault by Trump going back many years. He's attacked every one of the women, as if a notorious pathological liar like him is the only one telling the truth. Now, E. Jean Carroll will have her day in court to face the lying rapist from that day in the mid-90s.
