Trump Ordered to Pay $83.3 Million to E. Jean Carroll in Damages for Defamation, Former President Explodes: ‘This Is Not America!’
Former President Donald Trump was ordered to pay $83.3 million in damages to E. Jean Carroll for defaming her, a New York jury decided on Friday afternoon. The former president lashed out over the decision on social media.
The nine-person jury began deliberations in federal court at 1:40 p.m., and they reached a verdict in less than three hours. However, Trump reportedly exited the courthouse around 4 p.m., before the jury delivered its verdict in the trial that began on Jan. 16.
The jury came to the conclusion that Trump made defamatory comments toward Carroll while in the White House in June 2019, and the verdict was announced by federal Judge Lewis A. Kaplan.
The jury decided Trump must pay $18.3 million in compensatory damages, including $11 million for damage done to Carroll’s reputation and $7.3 million for emotional harm and other damages. In addition, Trump was also ordered to pay a whopping $65 million in punitive damages – for a total of $83.3 million. . .
Trump furiously reacted to the jury’s decision in an enraged diatribe on Truth Social.
