Judge clarifies: Yes, Trump was found to have raped E. Jean Carroll
“This was a rape claim, this was a rape case all along, and the jury rejected that — made other findings,” his lawyer, Joe Tacopina, said outside the courthouse.
A judge has now clarified that this is basically a legal distinction without a real-world difference. He says that what the jury found Trump did was in fact rape, as commonly understood.
…
“The finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape,’ ” Kaplan wrote.
He added: “Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that.”
So, yeah, let’s get those lawsuits filed so we can start the discovery process. That should be fun.
The defendant can subpeona all kinds of uncomfortable stuff. Everything they fail to produce can be leveraged. It’ll be great!
Wow, who would have thought that electing a rapist would have complicated the release of the Epstein Files?
Doesn’t seem like she directly named Trump, so I would think she’s legally in the clear. But I’m not a lawyer.
that statement could certainly be seen as being about any number of potential rapists in the government. it’s telling that trump is jumping in front of that statement.
Would be a great lawsuit. Just subooena E. jean Caroll to testify that he raped her, then Donald would scream shit about her and she could sue him again for more millions.
This sounds like a dark episode of Jerry Spiringer
Sue her? For what?
I really love her
Oh sure go right ahead, Streisand the shit outta you being an adjuicated sex offender that is all but certainly on that fucking LIST
Statutory rape is rape, too. If the fat fuck sues, Epstein’s list is relevant discoverable evidence to AOC’s truth defense. I will call that fat fuck a rapist every day until he sues, so that I can serve discovery on his stupid ass.
Adjudicated rapist wants to sue for being called a rapist.
Trump is a pedo…
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
Prove it isn’t true.
Let’s go to discovery.
Exactly. She knows she can say this because he can’t prove it’s untrue and any attempt to sue would only reveal more evidence that she’s correct.
Yeah, she should’ve called him a pedophile
For those who missed it:

“The only issue on which the jury did not find in Ms Carroll’s favour was whether she proved that Mr Trump ‘raped’ her within the narrow, technical meaning of that term in the New York penal law.
“The jury … was instructed that it could find that Mr Trump ‘raped’ Ms Carroll only if it found that he forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s vagina with his penis.
"It could not find that he ‘raped’ her if it determined that Mr Trump forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s private sexual parts with his fingers – which commonly is considered ‘rape’ in other contexts – because the New York penal law definition of rape is limited to penile penetration.”
So the only reason he wasn’t convicted on the rape charge is that his dick is so small they couldn’t definitively prove it was his penis.
“based on all of the evidence at trial and the jury’s verdict as a whole, the jury’s finding that Mr Trump ‘sexually abused’ Ms Carroll implicitly determined that he forcibly penetrated her digitally – in other words, that Mr Trump in fact did ‘rape’ Ms Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contexts outside of the New York penal law.”
I hate this country so fucking much.
Knowing conservatives, they plan to debase the word “rapist” to where it has no meaning like they did with “woke” and are trying to do with “nazi.”
Lol, sue her for what?
